Subject: RE: Bruised tailbone I fell on ice snowboarding and hurt my tailbone many years ago. Had to sit on a donut for several weeks. I seriously thought it was broken. Anyway, I did see a doctor / got it Xrayed, etc., and he said injuries to the coccyx take a long time to fully heal. I think mine was probably a total of 2 months before I was 100% back there again. I think the fact that you are able to run at this point says it won't be quite that long, though. I remember I had to ice, sit on a donut, use a laxative (hurt to go to the bathroom--even cough or sneeze for that matter!) and take an anti inflammatory. Maybe try the icing to speed it along? Good luck to you. |
