Suggest a remedy for tailbone pain
Patient: I have had tailbone pain for well over 12 months. I have seen a physio, I have taken anti inflammatory tablets, I sit on a cushioned ring. The last week or so I have been in so much pain that now it throbs when I'm laying in bed and standing also (not just sitting). It also hurts just standing.  I work in a classroom so I am up and down off chairs during the day and in the evenings I'm also on computer lots as I'm completing university also. Any more help would be appreciated. Doctor: Hello, I have studied your case. For resistant coccydynia[tail bone pain] sacral local block injection may be helpful. Prolotherapy [local injection] may also work for sacral pain.Consult your doctor for injection.Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give relief.I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.Continue sitz bath and use of ring cushion.Hope this answers your query.
