What Is The Reason For Pricking Sensation In Feet After Fracturing Coccyx And Lower And Upper Sacrum Previously?

I fractured my coccyx and lower and upper sacrum in 2009 after a fall. I have SLE (active sporadically) and hypermobility syndrome (9 or 10 depending on Brighton or Beigton scale, but maximum for both). I am on naproxen, methotrexate and fentanyl patches. I am employed but still find sitting produces pins and needles in my feet after sitting for more than half and hour. I have a chair at work with coccyx cut out and raised cushions but don t understand why I get this painful condition?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
i guess the symtoms have nothing to do with the surgery..U might be having some sort of nerve compression or swelling.
Rest,alagesics,neurotransmitters,physio should help.
Nothing to worry about.     
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
