Tailbone Book, Chapter 2, Symptoms of Tailbone Pain, Coccyx Pain
- This is the next in a series of videos that give a glimpse into the chapters of Dr. Foye’s book, “Tailbone Pain Relief Now!”
The actual VIDEO is at the bottom of this page.
Here is the TEXT from the video:
- Hi. I’m Dr. Patrick Foye M.D.
- I’m the Director of the Coccyx Pain Center or Tailbone Pain Center here in New Jersey, United States, online at www.TailboneDoctor.com.
- And this is the next in a series of videos just going chapter by chapter to provide a glimpse at the content in my book “Tailbone Pain Relief Now!”
- And in this video we’ll look at chapter 2 which is “Symptoms of Tailbone Pain” or coccyx pain.
- And the idea here is that there’s lots of people who have coccyx pain, or tailbone pain, coccydynia, that don’t actually know that that’s what’s causing their pain.
- People are not familiar with the anatomy.
- Unfortunately lots of doctors are not familiar with the anatomy.
- So people go on suffering and they know that something is painful when they’re sitting, when they’re sitting leaning back, when they go sometimes from sit to stand.
- There’s a whole variety of symptoms that are common.
- But unless they have a doctor that actually examines them properly, or takes a good history, or unless the patient themself is familiar with the anatomy, they often may not realize that the pain is coming from their tailbone.
- The tailbone is located… here’s the spine… this part is the sacrum…
- The tailbone or coccyx is located right down here at the lower tip of the spine, below the sacrum and just above the anus.
- So the patients typically will have pain in that location, as shown in the illustration here.
- And again that pain will be worse when they’re sitting, and for some people with sit-to-stand transitions as well.
- So really that pain while sitting is a classic, classic, classic symptom of tailbone pain or coccydynia.
- So that should be a big clue.
- Pain down at that lower tip of the spine.
- Sitting leaning forwards or sitting leaning towards one side or to the other side that will often have the pain feel a little bit better, because it’s taking some of the pressure off of the coccyx while you do that.
- And that can be another classic finding with patients with that tailbone pain.
- You can have tailbone pain that travels to other body regions as well, but that’s far less common.
- Usually it stays relatively well localized you know at the coccyx or at least in the immediate area there abouts.
- So that’s a little bit of a glimpse of what’s in Chapter 2 within the book “Tailbone Pain Relief Now!”
