Suffering From Tailbone Pain? Try These Easy Exercises For Instant Relief

Incorrect postures while sitting walking, or standing not only lead to common issues like back pain and lower back pain, but for many people, the also trigger pain in the tail bone. The tailbone is the bone located at the very bottom of the spinal column. 

This commonly referred to as the tailbone. This bone causes such peculiar and intense pain that sitting in one spot for an extended period becomes extremely difficult. Rising up after sitting for a long time is also accompanied by significant discomfort. If you are suffering from this type of pain, you should begin practicing the following exercises immediately.

1. The first exercise is the Cat-Cow pose. To perform this, place both your palms and both your knees on the floor. Next, lift your head and arch your spine downward. Then, lower your head to look toward the floor and round your spine upward. Repeat this sequence approximately 20 times.

2. The second exercise is Balasana (Child's Pose). To begin, sit in Vajrasana (Thunderbolt Pose). Next, widen the distance between your legs, moving your feet outward to either side so that your buttocks rest on the floor. Then, extend both your arms forward, bend down, and rest your forehead on the floor.

3. To perform the third exercise, lie down on your back. Bend your right leg at the knee, keeping your right foot flat on the floor. Next, bend your left leg at the knee and place your left foot on top of your right knee. Now, pull your right leg toward your abdomen. 

Repeat this exercise in the same manner using your left leg. This exercise should also be performed approximately 20 times. Doctors shared this information on the Instagram page painflameclinic, stating that if you perform these exercises regularly, they will certainly help alleviate tailbone pain.

4. You should also practice Setu Bandhasana (Bridge Pose) for about one minute every day. This exercise applies the appropriate stretch to the lower back region and helps in reducing tailbone pain.
