Depression due to Coccydynia in ladies by Dr.Syeda Mubashira(PT) .


 Hi everyone today's topic is Depression due to Coccydynia in Ladies.



As discussed in our previous blog about Coccydynia let me just give a brief idea about it.

Coccydynia or Tailbone pain can be defined in simple term as Pain in and around the coccyx (lowest portion of spine) usually bought by injury or trauma to coccyx or tailbone.Pain intensifies during and after sitting ,from sitting to standing.

As it is very similar to low back pain and shows more or less same symptoms as low back pain ,so its Important to differentiate it by proper assessment and diagnostic procedures.
As there is no direct evidence yet to conclude that coccyx pain can lead to depression, but there is a co-relation between chronic pain and depression.

Coccydynia is a most neglected condition and poor diagnosed across the globe.
Till the patient gets diagnosed by Coccydynia already the pain becomes chronic and especially in lady tailbone pain cases they feel shy to share this with the family.

Now lets understand what is depression and its relation to pain??????




Depression is a serious mood disorders which cause feeling of sadness, hopelessness & helplessness.

Depression magnifies pain ,as chronic pain lasts for longer from usual expected duration which may result in different emotional problems like anxiety,agitation,sleep disturbances, physical reconditioning,family stress, work problems, weight gain or loss.

Depression in women is very common, infact women are twice as likely to develop depression as men.Some experts believe that the increased chance of depression in women may be related to changes in hormone levels that occur throughout life.

The hormones which plays an important role during depression are estrogen ,progesterone & cortisol.Any abnormal levels of these hormones causes stress,agitation, mood instability,insomnia and depression.

Simple example :During the menstrual cycle generally the lady feels low, irritated and easily loose the cool.Its because of estrogen levels which goes low. So women's are more prone for depression due to pain .

One of my lady patient expressed that because of Coccydynia she was so depressed and had suicidal feeling.As she meet 5-6 Doctors who said her to live with this pain which made her depressed and miserable mentally & physically.Also the family couldn't help and support her in her pain.As its a private area she couldn't  share this with her friends because NoBody is aware about this condition called Coccydynia.This painful sitting started effecting her work  as she was not able to deliver her  duties. All this factors made her so hopeless until she got to know that there is a help and its curable. . (THESE ARE PATIENTS WORDING).


Actually Coccydynia is not a cancerous condition its curable but with proper interventions. You need to meet the specialist on time for fastest recovery. If any one is suffering from Coccydynia/Tailbone Pain then consult us for treatment .As early diagnosis and treatment will resolve the future problems.
