What better fun is there on a hot, Buffalo, NY summer day than to delight in a cool-water water ride or water slide? Most all of us can all relate to that! Some Buffalo, NY folks will do the sliding and riding, and some will watch. Which is better? Observing! Water slides and rides may go from fun to pain if the tailbone gets hurt. And it does! A new research report makes clear that water ride related tailbone pain is not reported in the medical literature before, but The Novelli Wellness Center knows it’s seen in this Buffalo, NY chiropractic practice’s patient group. The tailbone is properly named the coccyx, the lowest section of the spine, and tailbone injury may result in coccygeal instability and pain. (1) Like the rest of the spine, the coccyx has discs and dorsal root ganglia, too. DRG stimulation eases pain and improves function without any additional problems for patients with chronic coccydynia (coccyx pain). (2) Usual care of coccyx pain is physical therapy and pharmacological treatment. Adding manipulation decreased pain and disability for chronic coccydynia patients (who occasionally have low back pain and leg pain, too) in just three sessions. (3) If Buffalo, NY summer’s water fun hurts you, visit your Buffalo, NY chiropractor! The Novelli Wellness Center’s gentle manipulation may soothe the coccyx’s discs and DRGs and lessen your Buffalo, NY tailbone pain.
