What more fun is there on a hot, Auburn summer day than to delight in a cool-water water ride or water slide? Most all of us can all relate to that! Some Auburn folks will do the sliding and riding, and some will watch. Which is safer? Watching! Water slides and rides may turn from fun to pain if the tailbone gets damaged. And it does! A new research study makes clear that water ride related tailbone pain is not stated in the medical literature before, but Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. knows it’s found in this Auburn chiropractic practice’s patient group. The tailbone is properly 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 improves 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 reduced pain and disability for chronic coccydynia patients (who sometimes have low back pain and leg pain, too) in just 3 sessions. (3) If Auburn summer’s water fun hurts you, visit your Auburn chiropractor! Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C.’s gentle manipulation may soothe the coccyx’s discs and DRGs and relieve your Auburn tailbone pain.
