Suggest Treatment For The Tail Bone Pain
I am a 38 year old woman, fairly fit, two children. I have had very painful tailbone pain for several months now and it seems to be getting worse, rather than better. The pain is unusual, it almost is a burning pain and it worsens if I sit or even lay on my back. I am in constant discomfort to pain.

Hello,
For resistant coccydynia[tail bone pain] sacral local block injection may be helpful. Prolotherapy [local injection] may also work for sacral pain. Consult your doctor for an injection.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give relief. I will advise checking your vit B12 and vit D3 level. Continue sitz bath and use of ring cushion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
