Question:
I fell down my stairs and fractured my tailbone. I havent been able to get around, eat, sleep, and it is the worst pain in my life. I feel like dying. The only thing the hospital can do is give me pain medicine... Am I going to always have problems with it now...or will I still be able to sit in the floor like I like after it heals? Please help because I am worried!
Answers:
Some bones take longer to heal than others. I fractured the middle toe on my right foot some time ago and it took a couple of years for the pain to go away completely. My mother is having the same problem you're having. It's been 6 months and she is still in a lot of pain and having difficulty walking (she's 67). Your's will heal and the pain will go away eventually. Meantime, just baby your butt and don't obsess over sitting on the floor or whatever. You'll get that back.
