Question:
My tailbone has been hurting ever since i fell on it this morning in volleyball.
How do i know if it's broken?
or cracked or bruised?
THANK YOU(:
Answers:
More than likely it's just bruised. It's best to alternate applying heat and ice (10 min each) to keep the pain down and the possible swelling down as well. If the pain continues for more than 2 days you might want to see a doctor. I mention 2 days only because that is usually when pains will start to diminish unless they are serious injuries and not just a strain/sprain/etc. In any case though if the pain is too severe it is better to see a doctor.
