The discomfort caused by coccydynia can vary from mild to extreme. The duration and status of that pain can also largely depend on what may have triggered the onset of coccydynia. In most cases, the pain is brought on by an injury to the coccyx. Sometimes, the injuries can produce severe bruising, dislocation, or even a fracture or breaking of the coccyx. Any of these conditions can be extremely painful; still, the person is able to return to full health and normal function upon healing.What are the symptoms of coccydynia? The various symptoms of coccydynia are almost always preceded by an action on the part of the sufferer. For instance, many victims of coccydynia experience pain during or after sitting or feel acute pain while moving from sitting to standing. Some have pain when sitting on a hard, unyielding surface for too long as well.Other symptoms of coccydynia include a deep ache in the tailbone region, pain during bowel movements or sex, sensitivity to pressure on the back/buttock area and shooting pains down the leg similar to sciatica.The pain has also been described as feeling like one is sitting on a marble or knife.What causes coccydynia? There are many reasons why coccydynia develops and the most common is a trauma to the coccyx. Childbirth, surgery, falls and repetitive strain can produce coccydynia. If an unstable tailbone is the culprit, pain will worsen over time, caused by chronic inflammation. There are other reasons why one may experience pain in the lower tailbone region, including an infection, benign cysts, or bone fracture. This is why it is always wise to have a doctor examine you if you are having backaches that emanate from the coccyx.Recent studies have shown that women are five times more susceptible than men to develop coccydynia due to the structure of the female pelvic bones, and in some of the cases, a cause was undetermined.
