Anyone have Coccyx pain while riding? Any quick fixes to relieve the pain?

 

Airhawk inflatable bad worked for me but my butt broke into the seat i guess....I use a Mustang seat.

 

That would be two asprin and call me in the morning.

 

Mine hasn't hurt in years. I broke mine during a hockey game about 35 yrs ago. Talk about pain! Wow, it hurt

 

You need to check your posture, your handle bar position, and what seat your using.
And don't think about driving over 1000 miles straight through on your bike until setting things up and taking anti-inflammatory!

You could see a specialist of the spine. They will take x-rays and see if you have arthritis, bulging disc or inflammation and prescribe accordingly. However if its just an old tail bone break injury they will most likely tell you its inflamed and that needs to be brought back down before you can get any peace from the pain. Very rarely they say it needs surgery or removal.

Just need to live with it for the most part. Get the best seat for long hauls and comfort, adjust your bars up some, or get taller bars, that is about the best you can do.

 

thanks for the suggestions. I was hoping that some one knew of a tush-cush for a bike. Maybe I can cut one down to fit.

Thanks

 

tighter underwear!!! my Coccyx never hurts. Or I tell my wife to rub out the wrinkles.

 

OHHH!!! Your *** bone.

noun ( pl. coccyges |ˈkäksəˌjēz|or coccyxes |ˈkäksiksiz|)

Herb, your killing me.

 

Found these guys in the vendor section. http://www.meancitycycles.com/index.php

I am currently running a Mustang seat but I think I will check into these guys for my next ride. Alot cheaper than a new seat.
