After pubic separation, most patients experience significant pain in the anterior pelvic area, and in more severe cases, bilateral pain in the iliac bone and inner thighs, which increases when walking up and down stairs, stepping, bending or turning over. Some patients with severe pain may be unable to bear weight on their lower limbs, affecting normal walking. In addition, patients who have suffered a separation of the pubic bone as a result of trauma or violence may also experience shock and internal organ damage.
