Skateboarding accident. tailbone in pain, and this happened two years back. need to rid myself of it.help?
Answer:
I broke my tailbone so I can sympathize. It hurts real bad. However, if it was two years ago and you are still experiencing pain it sounds like the bone did not heal right. Unfortunatley when this happens they can do one of two things. Re-Break it and hope it heals correctly or they can do surgery. I was luck and mine healed properly, but this is what they advised me when it happened to me. Make an appt with your doc for options.
It's been way too long for this to still be hurting, so you should definitely go see a doctor. I bruised mine a while ago and the pain was gone in a few months. By the way, they make special doughnut cushions to sit on which take the pressure off your tailbone. You should look in to getting one.
I am not sure of the condition but is is possible that you could have a slipped disk which is out of place and results in pain. My suggestion to you is for you to consult a doctor or physiotherapist. Any thing that has long term effects and is causing you pain from an old injury should be checked out. Also you should try to avoid sitting on hard surfaces as this could possibly worsen your condition. Good luck and I hope this has answered your question.
