Numbness And Feeling Heat On The Leg, Painful Tailbone. Had A Severe Fall. Pinched Nerve?
I have numbness in my right heel and a feeling of heat radiating up my leg. I had a severe fall on my tailbone about 12-13 years ago. Nothing showed up in x-rays, mri, etc. I've had more x-rays since the heat started a few months ago, still nothing shows up. My tail bone is painful but not excruciating. DO seems to think pinched nerves but isn't sure. Would physical therapy help? Thank you.
