i am waiting to have an injection on my coccyx?

Question

if this does not work then they may remove the end of the coccyx, what i am trying to find out is the pain around the lower part of my back and a feeling of a muscle spasm would these be because of my coccyx problem, would i be affected when i walk with a coccyx problem

Answer 1

I broke my coccyx at the time I was very, very pregnant by slipping over. Luckily my pergnant butt saved me!
It has caused severe lower back ache and spasm since. The pain will also cause you some nausea if the pain get's too high, such as sitting too long.
This seems to really agrevate the pain as when you sit the coccyx should sit perfectly natural on a hard surface. After it's been broken it is put out of alignment so when you sit, you are putting direct pressure on your spinal cord nerves.
Sitting may be a little more awkward for a little while after surgery, but it won't effect your walking except after sitting for an extended period of time. The same as it would now.

Answer 2

The muscle spasms and the pain can be coming from nerves being compressed from the tailbone area.

I suggest you go to the drugstore and buy a cushion called the doughnut. This cushion has a hole in the center so that your coccyx does not get pressure. This is going to help you now and after the injection. I've had five tailbone surgeries and I know the value of the doughnut cushion.

Answer 3

I would have to say that any injection on or around your coccyx would have to be quite painful. And if you ever have had a broken tailbone it doesnt feel too good either. Remove the baby tail!!!
