YOu may have "bruised" your tail bone...it takes a couple of weeks to go away.

It definitely sounds like you bruised your tailbone. Recovery may take some time and alot of times the pain gets worse before it gets better. Take some Motrin and avoid hard surfaces. You can sit on a pillow or get an inflatable donut. The donut would probably be the best due to the hole in the middle with relieve the pressure on the area.

I would say it is a bruised tail bone- those take AWHILE to heal...try lying on a heating pad at night-- it should help out a bit with the pain...if that doesnt work- try an ice pack - which will bring down any inflammation also take ibpruofen which is anti imflammatory as well.

As well as what everyone else said, it sounds like you have bruised your tailbone. Avoid sitting on hard surfaces, since that will definitely hurt. Take a pillow with you or one of those inflatable donuts if you can. I had a friend who bruised hers and she had to use one. It lasted about 3 weeks.

You probably bruised yourself pretty good. The weight of your body forcing you to the ground with only a little cushion to soften the blow.
Sometimes deep bruises take awhile to show, but can hurt the worst! I doubt it is anything serious. But if it doesn't go away, have him check it again.

My mom did the same thing and she had to sit on a yellow padded donut looking thing and it was bruised. That's probably what happened to you!
