Need help doctors, radiologists, nurses please answer!?


Question:
I fell out of a moving car and landed on my a$s 15 months ago the doctors did not take X-rays because they said it was probably broken and X-rays would just tell them what they already know. They told me to sit of a special cushion and to take tylenol for the pain and it should heal in 6-8 months.

However i still have pain when i sit down and sometimes even when i lay down. What can i do?

Answers:
see a doctor
get a second opinion. not a dr
Unfortunately, there is no cure for a cracked or broken tailbone (sometimes they can do surgery to remove bone chips, I think). I cracked mine when I was 12 and still cannot sit on bleachers or hard surfaces for extended periods. Try browsing this website to see if there is any helpful information. You could always go and ask your Dr for an x-ray to see if there might be bone fragments...

Good luck.

Ice is always good for pain but to know for sure what is wrong you will need an MRI. In the meantime try msm cream or gel available at the vitamin shop or pain patches for back.
