Reason For Pain In The Tail Bone Along With Butt Cracks?

I had a pilonidal cyst surgically removed in 1971. The incision was never surgically closed. I recently have had some drainage but I m not sure if it s just sweat or not. My daughter says I have moles that look scaly in my butt crack and that they are crusted. I have been soaking in the tub. My tailbone doesn t hurt. What do you think?

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.

There can be coccyx bone injury
For resistant coccydynia sacral local block injection may be helpful.
Prolotherapy [local injection] may also work for sacral pain.

Consult your doctor for injection.

Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Continue sitz bath and use of ring cushion.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
