Back Pain - subluxation of the distal third of the coccyx
Posted: 08-07-07 21:15pm

Hi, i have recently been diagnosed with subluxation of the distal third of the coccyx. I'm wondering if this could be directly related to my pregnancy a year ago?

I'd think that delivering a child could disrupt the coccyx, not to mention those months of weight bearing. So my guess is: yes.

It sure can! Those little ones sure do take a toll onthe bod, don't they? I think it should come out of their security deposit!

Some helpful treatments could include:

Ultrasound
Iontophoresis
Oral steroids or anti inflammatories
Manipulation with a really good osteopath (not pleasant!)
sitting on a doughnut cushion
Sitting on an exercise ball
Alternating seated positions every 30 minutes or so.

What are they going to do for you? I am sorry this is a painful thing to have!
