What to do if your tailbone hurts during pregnancy

The biggest expectation of both husband and wife during pregnancy is the hope for the future baby, but it is also the torment of happiness for the woman! However, some women not only have to bear the sports risks brought by pregnancy, but also have to endure the physical pain brought by pregnancy. Coccyx pain during pregnancy is a common pain during pregnancy, which can be severe and make women suffer unbearable pain. So, what should you do if you have coccyx pain during pregnancy? Here are some treatment methods for you.

1. Maintain a good sitting posture, reduce pressure on the spine, and exercise more to reduce the chance of coccyx injury.

2. For people with chronic coccyx pain, the most important thing is to reduce or avoid pressure on the affected area as much as possible. When sitting normally, you can put a decompression cushion similar to a lifebuoy on the chair to reduce the pressure on the affected area.

3. This hollow-designed cushion can disperse the pressure on the coccyx and buttocks, allowing patients to sit longer and work more conveniently. At home, you should apply hot compresses to the affected area frequently to enhance blood circulation in the painful area and promote therapeutic effects.

4. You can wear low-heeled shoes to relieve pain. If the pain is severe, you can seek treatment from an obstetrician, gynecologist, physical therapist or osteopath.

5. Finally, calcium is needed. Pregnant women need to supplement calcium and iron. Calcium supplementation can strengthen bones and increase the bearing capacity of the coccyx.

The above is an introduction to what to do if you have coccyx pain during pregnancy. I hope pregnant women will pay attention to this problem. This is not a common phenomenon and is mostly caused by personal constitution. Therefore, you must make preparations before pregnancy and take in trace elements that the human body lacks in time. After pregnancy, you should also maintain good sitting habits, avoid fatigue, and reduce the chance of coccyx injury. At the same time, keep a good mood and everything will be fine after the pregnancy.
