How Can Pain In The Tailbone Be Treated?

injuried my tailbone and spine in 1989 and had to have traction and therapy. Fell off a porch and slammed down on concrete on my left side and got a compression fracture to lower lumbar involving 6 disks in 2014. What can I do for the pain? The doctor I go to isn t giving me anything that helps. In the mornings and other times I can barely walk or move around

Hello
Thank you for using healthcaremagic
I read your question and understood your concern
It think that injections with lidocaine and cortisone in your spine is another treatment option in cases that other treatment does work
I wish you quick recovery
