Suggest Treatment For Pain And Discomfort In Tail Bone After Injury
I hurt my tailbone back in February. I got my tailbone checked out and the doc told me it was my lower back. That it was stressed. So I waited and waited but the pain got worse. I can t move in a certain direction. Ever since I have been having a lot of pain and discomfort. I can t sit on hard seats. I can t lift heavy things. My intimate life with my boyfriend hurts. I can t sleep well. Should I go back to the dotors office?

Hello,
You should go to your doctor's office and do a x-ray of the tailbone to see it's conditions. Use anti-inflammatory drugs such Advil or naproxen for pain. Have rest and don't lift weights.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
