Tailbone pain also known as a coccyx or coccygeal sprain is an injury to the lowest part of the spine. This sprain pushes your tail bone in and can go from mildly annoying to unbearable pain. This is often from trauma like falling in the bathtub but can also be caused by sitting on a hard surface with poor posture for a long period of time.
How can a tailbone sprain be treated?
The only way to treat the sprain is to correct the misalignment caused by the initial injury. Your Chiropractor corrects this misalignment through specific gentle chiropractic adjustments to the tail bone. Once the tailbone is in place the healing of the ligament can begin.
How long does it take to heal?
With regular chiropractic treatment sprains can fully heal in 6-12 weeks. However most patients begin to feel relief within the first few weeks of treatment.
