Although there are cases when the pain after the injury was short-lived and barely noticeable, and after months and years to make itself felt and at the same time in a very strong and acute form. Often the pain in the coccyx is difficult to distinguish from lumbar or sacral pain.

If there is a cyst of the spine in the sacrum or lower back, and also with osteochondrosis, then often such pains are similar and felt in the lower back. Such pains are extremely incomprehensible, the patient can not express exactly where the pain is, becauseShe is felt in the lower back, and then shoots in the coccyx.

Similar symptoms can be traced when the nerve endings are jammed in the sacrum or in the lumbar region, in the case of sciatica, when the sciatic nerve is restrained, the pain is expressed in the burning sensation and gives to the coccyx. Strangely enough, but even with diseases of the intestine, for example, because of hemorrhoids, such pain symptoms in the area of ​​the coccyx and sacrum can be felt.

Pain when sitting

This is mainly due to a long sitting on the upholstered furniture, it is very difficult for the coccyx to occupy the correct position, because of this the vessels supplying this area with blood stagnate. As a result, there are multiple vertebral deposits of salts. Among people with such pain when sitting, there are athletes, for example, cyclists or equestrian sportsmen, this is due to frequent micro-traumas in the coccyx.

If the pain in a woman after childbirth, then most likely it is because of multiple extensions and deformities of the vertebral joints. Also, such pain in sitting can manifest with a dermoid cyst. Such a cyst does not appear. This is a congenital pathology, in this case a void appears in the coccyx, but it is not empty, it overgrows with skin and hair.

• lack of calcium in the bones;
• in a pregnant woman there are very strong processes of changes in the body, some of them are responsible for the life of the child, part for preparing for childbirth.

Because4 and 5 vertebrae are spliced, this causes pain, sometimes very severe.
