We see patients like this frequently and I can tell you YES, removing your coccyx bone or part of your sacrum can have an effect on the rest of your body and I want to talk to you about WHY. What happens when your tailbone is removed? There are a lot of muscular attachments to the tailbone and the sacrum and this muscular attachment is part of the pelvic floor, which is a hammock type muscle that starts at your pubic bone and hooks to your tailbone. The pelvic floor is actually 16 different muscles with different attachments to different areas, one of those being the tailbone/sacrum. So, when you remove your tailbone or part of your sacrum, what happens to those muscle attachments? To find out, you would have to either talk to your physician or ask to see your operating report. There is a chance that they might not have done anything with those muscles. So what ends up happening is those muscles become dysfunctional. So, if those muscles aren’t working anymore, either because they aren’t receptive or are cut off, then the other muscles are going to compensate or over work. This can cause the functional muscles to get super tight, which can affect everything from sexual intercourse to emptying your bladder or rectum. Some of the issues it can cause include: • Urinary frequency • Burning with urination • Pain with a bowel movement • Constipation Orthopedic Issues from tailbone removal This pelvic floor dysfunction from tailbone removal can also create hip pain. This is because a lot of the musculature hooks onto the hip. It can also cause low back pain, because part of the role of the pelvic floor muscles is to help to stabilize the pelvis and the spine. So if you are having SI joint pain or low back pain, this can be something that has developed over time due to the muscular change from the removal of your tailbone. Treating Pelvic Floor Dysfunction from Tailbone Removal Treatment is available to help get these muscles working again in a more efficient way. Working with an integrative physical therapist can be helpful because they understand how all of this is connected. If you live in the Philadelphia area, you can give us a call 267-282-1301 or .
