If in doubt go. Don't leave it until it gets worse.

Best to get something done about it, I broke mine about 7 years ago and have problems sitting on some seats.

Just have a thought as to where the osteopath sticks his fingers to push it back into place if it is still displaced.......

Ouch! I bruised my coccyx many years ago when I fell off my bike in the snow.

I didn't do anything about it - probably too embarrassed :oops: - at the time but I wish I had since.

It took ages to settle and even now I have difficulty sitting for long periods.

Take care.

Hope you have taken yourself off to the hospital. Bruising your tailbone is one of the most painful injuries. Hope you get better soon. Linda

Hi Weetabix, my opinion is that you should get an x-ray asap, then it will reassure you, I hope it is good news for you, please let us know how you get on, by the way is Weetabix your favourite cereal? love Jaspercatxxx
