PeteMorris Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I have no idea what they can do for them, the doctors just told me to take pain killers and wait it out To top it all off.. I had a deep filling at the dentist last tuesday and now its hurting I am the mardiest patient on the planet when it comes to pain and am hating having to sit on a rubber ring like an old lady lol Maybe the toothache is a good thing? It'll take your mind off the other pain in the a### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medusa Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I'm afraid to say that a coccyx injury can be one that takes a very long time to heal. It's very much like sternum injuries- you can't properly incapacitate it because you need to breathe and move sometimes, and it's so nerve rich that once you've annoyed the nerves it can take months/years for them to calm down. When the injury is fresh (as it is now) there really is nothing you can do apart from learning what causes the pain to worsen and avoid it, but once the bony injury has healed then there's a part to be played by physiotherapy or osteopathy to start getting the muscles built up around the area again which should reduce symptoms long term. Good luck I'm willing you a pain free moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skirmisher Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 :( :( I am quite an active person and do aggressive sports, does this mean the end of them?? I thought I knew you after reading the OP but after reading this, I must be mistaken cause the Lucy Jackson I know is an idle bitch Hope the pain don't last too long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteMorris Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 :( :( I am quite an active person and do aggressive sports, does this mean the end of them?? At least for the foreseeable, unless you take up something that doesn't stress it, like swimming maybe. Once it stops hurting all the time, you'll learn what you can and can't do. Of course everyone is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddywolf Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I'm an active person too and never ever thought of a breakage to the tailbone, how did you do it? There is no real fat or muscle there so I wanna take care of mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
