My Coccyx aches any ideads?!


Question: my coccyx really aches or hurts when i touch it or sit directly on it and when i have felt it i can feel a chunk missing from it but i havent fallen at all recently so it cant be due to this. my bones have never been normal as one side of my chest feels different to the other so the chunk may just be another abnormality?
its not causing too much discomfort and its not like the doctors can put a cast on it so shall i just let it heal over?

sounds like you chipped it. you should go to a doctor.

I take it that you are female from your name. Have you recently give birth to a child or are you pregnant. During birth or during pregnancy you can inflame the coccyx and the symptoms can be exactly as you describe. This is called Coccydynia. If this is the case all you can do is get a really soft cushion when you are sitting and wait it out. There are actually cushions out there for this reason. If this is not the case you can always go see your doc and have and X-ray take to see if there is a fracture.
