Suggest Remedy For Pain In Tailbone

Been given odds not in favor of surgery by mu neurologist. I have scoliosis and arthritis in my spine and ribs, shoulders. I ve also got a lower back injury, disc damage. Hurts in my tailbone most of the time, especially when I pee- hard to do sometimes. Just standing any period of time can cause 3,4 really bad days. Pain level seldom (now it s turned cooler) cets below an 8. The spine ctr I m attending isn;t controlling my pain. Though I haven t touched grass in many years, I m thinking it may be time for the CBD s. I ll need to go to SC just below us to get this help. Please help/ advise!!!

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.

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.
