What better fun is there on a hot, Minster summer day than to enjoy a cool-water water ride or water slide? Most all of us can all relate to that! Some Minster folks will do the sliding and riding, and some will view from distance. Which is safer? Watching! Water slides and rides may go from fun to pain if the tailbone gets injured. And it does! A new research study makes clear that water ride related tailbone pain is not stated in the medical writings before, but Minster Chiropractic Center knows it is seen in this Minster chiropractic practice’s patient group. The tailbone is properly called 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 reduces pain and increases function without any complications 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 experience low back pain and leg pain as well) in just three sessions. (3) If Minster summer’s water fun hurts you, go to your Minster chiropractor! Minster Chiropractic Center’s gentle manipulation may calm the coccyx’s discs and DRGs and lessen your Minster tailbone pain.
