Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sharp perineum pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like pudenda nerve, ejactulary duct obstruction, benign prostatic hypertrophy , postpartum, ischiorectal abscess, perineural cyst, prostatitis , ovarian cysts or appendicitis .
