What Does Dr. Corey Babb Enjoy About His Job?
Dr. Corey Babb recently shared on his Instagram feed that one of the most enjoyable aspects of his job is being able to surgically help patients get back to living their best lives. On a recent morning, he could be found at the local hospital where he performed four Botox chemodenervations for hypertonic pelvic floor and vaginismus, as well as a vulvar reconstruction. He says,”It’s an honor to be able to provide this service to those in need!”
Botox chemodenervation is the medical name for injecting Botox into spasmed (or hypertonic) pelvic floor muscles to get them to relax. When pelvic floor muscles are spasmed, they can cause pain with intercourse, and difficulties with bladder & bowel function, along with pain all the way down to the patient’s feet. By injecting Botox into the spasmed muscles, the spasms are stopped, and the patient can work with a pelvic floor physical therapist to strengthen their pelvic floor, avoiding further spasms.
