does obesity cause coccyx?
ivfummi 1 year ago
@ivfummi Good question. Obesity is associated with increased risk of tailbone pain. But I have seen many atients who have developed coccyx pain after dramatically losing weight (e.g. losing 110 pounds after a stomach-bypass surgery). The theory is that dramatic weight loss includes weight loss at the gluteal/buttock region, decreasing the padding while sitting (although I am certainly NOT recommending remaining were becoming overweight as a way to treat tailbone pain). Wishing you well.
