I saw a doctor about 2 years ago about a burning sensation at my tail bone when I got in the tub for a bath. I saw a doctor right away. I was told I had developed a fungus at the tailbone area, and that a break in the skin in that area had devloped. I was prescribed naftin cream to kill the fungus. Well, the longer I used that cream a pain developed in that area. I noticed the more I used the Naftin cream the worse the pain got. It really made my tail bone sore. It has been very painfull. it stopped being painfull for about 1 month only and set in again. I have seen several specialist. Back specialists and bone specialist. I had a MRI with contast. It showed nothing was wrong. No polidonial cyst or anything. I have had one steroid shot it helped a little. But now I am at a end. what to do now?
