Muscles
Looks like
The bony and muscular walls of the pelvis, lined by the obturator internus and piriformis and closed below by the pelvic floor.
What it does
Protects the bladder, rectum and reproductive organs and carries the nerves and vessels to the legs.
Keeping it well
Pelvic pain lasting months deserves assessment; sudden severe pain, especially in pregnancy, is an emergency.
