i think i broke my coccyx

Nah bro. Just put some ice on it


Don't worry about the possible spinal/vertebrae damage.

Seriously, to see the ****ing doctor. A buddy of mine had busted his ass in a ski accident and ended up with 9 pinched nerves in his neck.

 

Did you fall? If you break a bone like your coccyx, you would almost have to remember doing it. You should go to the doctor either way, but if you are experiencing pain in the tailbone, and haven't had any real falls or impacts, it could be an infection, like a pilonidal cyst. If this is the case, going to the doctor early before an abscess forms is critical. It can be treated with antibiotics if caught early, otherwise you will be in for a much more painful process.

If you did brake your coccyx, odds are you're in for a long recovery.

 

You were sitting indian style on the corner of a tile step or you were sitting indian style, got up, and sat on the corner of a tile step?

Unless you jumped up and landed on your butt i doubt you broke it. You probably sat incorrectly and screwed up your SI joint.

 

oh, maybe u just bruised it....im no doctor, but i'd think if you broke it you'd feel pain more frequently than sitting down a day later. If you got insurance, might as well check it out.

 

My nephew's grandma did the same thing.

 

I'm thinking of becoming a proctologist and you would make a great study subject. Bring your broken bum and a bottle of butter and lets get diagnosin'!

 

Did you know that if someone had a abnormally long coccyx, they would have a tail.

 

Had to google.
