What more fun is there on a hot, Toronto summer day than to delight in a cool-water water ride or water slide? We can all relate to that! Some Toronto folks will do the sliding and riding, and some will observe. Which is better? Viewing from afar! Water slides and rides may go from fun to pain if the tailbone gets injured. And it does! A new research report describes that water ride related tailbone pain is not reported in the medical writings before, but Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre knows it’s seen in this Toronto chiropractic practice’s patient population. The tailbone is formally named the coccyx, the lowest section of the spine, and tailbone injury may develop into coccygeal instability and pain. (1) Just as with the rest of the spine, the coccyx has discs and dorsal root ganglia, too. DRG stimulation eases pain and increases function without any complications for patients with chronic coccydynia (coccyx pain). (2) Usual care of coccyx pain is physical therapy and medication treatment. Adding manipulation decreased pain and disability for chronic coccydynia patients (who sometimes experience low back pain and leg pain as well) in just 3 sessions. (3) If Toronto summer’s water fun hurts you, visit your Toronto chiropractor! Yorkville Chiropractic and Wellness Centre’s gentle manipulation may soothe the coccyx’s discs and DRGs and relieve your Toronto tailbone pain.
