Posted: 08:54 - 10 Apr 2017 Post subject: Damaged or bruised coccyx |
|
|
I’m going to try and book in with the doc’s soon but wanted to see if anyone had some experience with this.
I’ve bought a supermoto and so that means upright position for riding now. I’ve never experienced this until now but after about half an hour to forty five minutes I started to get a bit of a dull ache on my coccyx bone. As soon as my bum leaves the seat it’s quite painful but simply subsides quickly to almost nothing.
I remember when I was doing a lot of cycling back in 2015/16 I did suffer with some pain there after being on the bike for a while. I put this down to perhaps not doing enough or just needing a better seat. It seems however there has been a lasting effect.
I’d rather not have surgery (as I’ve seen can be a solution) and wondered if anyone else had experience this kind of thing and remedied it. ____________________ Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult.

I friend of mine fractured her coxyyx in a random drunken injury. Hasn't been able to ride a sports bike more than 50 miles since.
She then found she could ride a street-bob without pain. She got bored with it because it was too slow. Now has a tiger 800 which suits her well.
So, could be a case of finding/engineering a different riding position (or even bike). Foot position is likely to be relevant, so the degree of lead/trail your feet have in relation to your centre of gravity. Even tiny changes in this geometry are likely to make a difference, might just need a sert of modified footpeg hangers.
Padded cycle shorts might help. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
