What Is Coccydynia, and How Can Tailbone Pain Be Treated Naturally? - #15471
I recently started experiencing pain at the bottom of my spine, especially when sitting for long periods, and after some research, I found out it could be coccydynia. From what I understand, coccydynia is tailbone pain caused by injury, prolonged sitting, or pressure on the coccyx, but what exactly triggers it? I read that coccydynia can be caused by falls, pregnancy, obesity, or poor posture, but how do you determine the exact cause of tailbone pain? Can sitting on hard surfaces or incorrect sitting positions make it worse? One thing that concerns me is whether coccydynia can become chronic if left untreated. What are the best ways to relieve tailbone pain naturally and prevent long-term discomfort? Are there any Ayurvedic or natural remedies that help with coccydynia pain relief? I’ve heard that Mahanarayan oil massage, yoga stretches, and hot compresses can help—do these actually work for reducing tailbone inflammation? If anyone has experienced coccydynia, what treatments or lifestyle changes helped the most? Did physical therapy, sitting cushions, or herbal treatments make the biggest difference?
