What Is Postnatal Coccydynia?

Postnatal coccydynia, also called postpartum coccydynia or tailbone pain after pregnancy, is pain and inflammation around the coccyx bone that develops during or after childbirth.

Common Causes

  • Coccyx compression during delivery
  • Hormonal changes that loosen pelvic ligaments
  • Improper sitting posture while breastfeeding
  • Pelvic floor dysfunction after pregnancy

Common Symptoms

  • Sharp tailbone pain when sitting
  • Pain while standing from a seated position
  • Discomfort during breastfeeding
  • Pain while walking, bending, or sleeping on the back
Early treatment can prevent chronic tailbone pain that may otherwise last for months or years.
