Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I hurt my tailbone at least 4 months ago, i had an xray to see if there was a break and no it came back clear. i recently fell on it and it hurts so much more to sit on it... like when i sit for more than 10 mins it hurts really bad. What should i do?? should i go to a chiropractor? Or go back to the doctor?
Tail bone pain responds best to offloading pressure over it.. I would suggest you to avoid sleeping directly over back .It is beat if you would sleep on sides for a few weeks.Also ccocyz cushion which is a horse show shaped or a ring shaped inflatable suiting baoon cushion helps. I suggest you to use it religiously irrespective of where yiu are sitting over at least 6 weeks to get good relief. Relief of pressure over the tail bone is the most important step in relieving your pain. You can use any pain killer over initial few days.
Hope this helps.
All the best
Regards.
Dr.SBK
