default
Posted on Wed, 18 Feb 2015
Question: Hello, I slipped on the ice this morning, have a large bruise on the coccyx ( according to my daughter) and a biggish blood whatever. I'm ok lying down, but feel sick If I get up. I went to church this morning. But had to be brought home, as I was really cold ,felt sick ,and evidently very pale. It's the blood thing I wondered what to do about.

I'm Dr. Sudhir Kumar,

I have gone through your question in detail and understand your concern.You got Hematoma in the sacral region. Treatment of it is rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen/paracetamol for pain relief. Hematoma ( bruise) will gradually resolve. You no need to worry unless you have fever(fever indicate infection). Vitamin B and C help in resolving it.Thrombopbobe gel local application without rubbing help in resolving it.

You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.
