I was running and i fell down and hurt my tailbone...?!


Question: i can barely bend down and stuff...


Answers: i can barely bend down and stuff...

I think the bone is called the coxix. Not sure of the spelling. I fell out of a tree once and did the same thing. I was OK though. If your pain persists for 3 or more days get to good Chiropractor.
In the meantime use an ice pack as much as you can. Those soft ice packs from the drug store are great.

and the question is?

My friend was swinging ia a tree branch above a metal seat at school. she fell, tailbone onto the seat. It was bruised and she couldnt bend down and suff. It got better itself though, with pain and difficulty. There isnt really much you can do but you can lay down and have some ice on you, or sit in a bath FULL of ice. Its hard but really does work.

this has happened to me

best way to stop the pain is REST for a few days

don't strain it or do any strenous exercise

it should be fine in a while

Here is a link that may help.

Only time will heel it..unless you chipped a bone. Take a couple of Motrn IB it will help the pain.If it persists ..see the Doc.

rest and sleep
