Pubicitis

The pubic symphysis is formed by combining the pubic bone on both sides and the fibrous cartilage disc in the middle. The ligaments are strengthened above and below this joint. Cartilage discs often have a sagittal fissure-like cavity, but no synovium, so the pubic symphysis has a certain mobility. This has certain significance for women to expand the pelvic cavity during childbirth. The characteristics of the pubic symphysis structure make it often cause pubic fractures when subjected to violent shock, and it is not easy for pubic symphysis to separate. However, in cases where external forces fail to produce a pelvic fracture, including the sacroiliac joint displacement, it will inevitably cause a combined displacement of the pubic bone and easily cause the disease. Pubic ostitis is a non-purulent lesion that occurs in the pubic symphysis area and manifests as pain in the pubic symphysis and pubic branch, which is more common in women. The condition can last for several years and eventually heal itself.
