Coccydynia

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever had this before? If so, does it go away on its own?

 

Couldn't sleep a wink last night; it's quite literally a total pain in the *rse. :(

Cortisone injenctions are the way forward.

 

Rest, avoiding re-injury to the affected area, antiinflammation and pain medications can relieve symptoms. Some patients with persistent coccydynia are treated with local cortisone injection. This injection is simply performed in the doctor's office and can potentially dramatically relieve the pain and even resolve the symptoms for many. Rarely, when patients have unrelenting pain, a surgical resection of the coccyx can be performed to remove the irritated bony prominence.

So what you're saying is that you have the tiniest hint of a tail?

 

Can't say I've ever suffered from that myself, no.
