Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello again,

I understand your problem.
I will advise you to take sacral block injection to get relief from persistent pain.

You can give your exam but use ring cushion/soft cushion for long sitting.
Rest may help for persistent pain.

Pain will not remain for life time.

While driving scooter you can use soft cushion. Avoid bad jerks while driving.
You can do physical exercises, skipping also.
Strengthen your gluteal and sacral muscles.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Regards
Dr Vaibhav Gandhi
