The true proverbial PAIN IN THE ASS .
coccyx=tail bone
I don't have a single clue as to how I injured mine , but it is killing me .
Went to the doc yesterday and no broken bones .
I cant sit , stand , roll over bend over get up from a seated position ect..ect.. without screaming like a little girl . ( I know what you gonna say about that so don't!)

What I don't seem to get is the the sick laughter I get from ever one around me.

The guys finished working out yesterday and asked me to go in there and show them something . I refused over and over again , but I got up and screamed and they all started laughing .
Why you may ask did they want me! My son had a bet with the others that he could make me scream without touching me.

I made the Mofos get out and took away their keys.
This is not a fucking thing to be laughing the fuck about .
I've been in pain level from 1-10 at a 7 to 10 plus since Friday.
I'm had many a bad injury , but with this you can't even pass gas with out pain .
And it is not just them that for some sick reason that thinks its funny
But the future looks bright.
The doc gave me Methylprednislone pac and some Valium .
Within six hours after taking the steroid I had abouy 65% reduction in pain.
I was totally amazed how quick it worked.
What a pain in the ass this has been.
I wouldn'd even wish this on my enemies.

I injured mine in a rugby match during college. I can more than empathize with your painful situation. They didn't find any fractures or abnormalities and said I had just severely bruised it. My buddy is a chiropractor and told me to rotate sitting on cold packs and heating pads. Hope you get to feeling better.

Yep been there. Damn near passed out because of the pain and still have a scar. Hope you are feeling better soon. You might try using Arnica cream. It is great for contusion type injuries.

Not to make light but every time I read this I hear Uncle Rico:

"Your grandma took a spill at the sand dunes today. Broke her coccyx!"

I am a lot better , but as it turned out it was a cyst instead and it gave me blood poisoning.
but I'm 98% OK now.
