Suggest Treatment For Severe Tailbone Fracture

Hello sir. I met an accident 14 days back. Except minor injuries, I got to know that my tail bone got fractured post consulting doctor & X-ray. Presently using ring pillow for sitting, spine position while sleeping & taking prescribed medicines from last 10 days. Also doing home remedies like having milk with turmeric powder & applying mixture of turmeric & ghee on the affected area, But still having terrible pain. Please advice any other treatment/suggestions so that I can recover soon.

Hello,

I have studied your case.

wait for few months for relief.
For resistant coccydynia sacral local block injection may be helpful.
Prolotherapy [local injection] may also work for sacral pain.

Consult your doctor for injection.

Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Continue sitz bath and use of ring cushion.

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.

Take care.
