In his recent feature in Lokmat – Mantra of Health, Dr. Ajay Kothari, Consultant Orthopaedic Spine Surgeon in Shivaji Nagar, Pune, addresses the growing issue of tailbone (coccyx) pain—especially post-pandemic due to long sitting hours and inadequate seating during work-from-home and online schooling. He explains how this small yet crucial bone bears the body’s weight while sitting, and outlines causes, symptoms, and effective treatments like cushions, physiotherapy, and coccyx manipulation. Dr. Kothari emphasizes timely diagnosis and preventive care to manage this increasingly common problem.
