Coccyx pain is more common in women, what is the reason

Coccyx pain refers to a strong tingling sensation in the patient's coccyx or coccyx joint. In recent years, this disease has gradually become more common in women. So what exactly causes this situation?

1. Female bone causes

Compared with men, women's coccyx bones are relatively shorter, wider in overall proportion, and positioned relatively backward. This bone structure causes women's coccyx to tilt forward less and be lower overall, making it more susceptible to injury and pain.

2. Caused by pregnancy

After a woman becomes pregnant, her overall ligaments are in a loose state and her pelvis is also in a relatively relaxed state, so it is more likely to cause displacement problems during this period, ultimately leading to greater pain in the coccyx.

3. Production reasons

Women are more likely to experience coccyx pain during childbirth. Especially for mothers who are giving birth for the first time or who are experiencing a difficult birth, the coccyx may be sprained or even dislocated due to excessive pressure during delivery.

4. Improper exercise leads to

Although it cannot be said to be absolute, the vast majority of girls have some improper habits in sports, which lead to problems such as falling during exercise and collision of the female coccyx. At the same time, incorrect exercise posture may lead to dislocation of the coccyx and cause coccyx pain.

5. Treatment recommendations

For this condition, painkillers can be taken when necessary, but the dosage should be strictly controlled. For patients with more serious conditions, local analgesics can also be injected to temporarily relieve the tingling sensation. Massage, electric shock and other methods can usually be used for treatment. You should pay attention to your usual sitting and exercise posture, change improper posture, reduce the stress on the buttocks, prevent long-term local compression on the coccyx, and thus relieve symptoms. You can also use traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture, cupping and other methods to relieve muscles and bones.
