First, it is necessary to determine whether there has been external trauma, as injury often leads to fractures, which may subsequently cause pubic diastasis. This can be diagnosed through physical examination by a physician or with relevant imaging tests such as color Doppler ultrasound, CT, or MRI. If the pain is caused by local ligament or muscle strain, the patient should focus on rest and may also apply topical treatments such as flurbiprofen axetil plaster to the affected area.
