I fell down the stairs a month ago, Landed on my tail bone, and sort of twisted and heard and felt a crack in the middle of my back. I went to the doc and got x-ray to see if I had a fracture, but I didnt. My tailbone was cracked but not that bad. I still am having pain in my mid back and it effects me laying down, sitting up, laying on my side, or even sometimes breathing when Im in a certain position. What should I do? Do I need a chiropractor?
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. You got injury to your right hip area. You are having tailbone pain, you already ruled out fracture by x-ray. It is called coccyxdynia. Analgesics (DICLOFENAC 50MG three times a day)will give YOU RELIEF from pain. Other advise to give you relief is 1. Not to sit on hard objects and use soft objects for sitting.2. Hot fomentation I think your query answered. Welcome to any follow-up query.
