Type 2 coccyx
Hi I have been suffering from tailbone pain since 2 years now...I am a CA and have lots of sitting involved and developed this pain... Have been using coccyx pillow for 1 year.. Got sitting/standing xray done and MRI too... Reports suggest type 2 coccyx and I have attached MRI report and Xray film also. One physio from bangalore has been trying to convince me to go for "internal manipulation of coccyx through rectum" and the cost is 5000/session and there will be 15 sessions over a period of 9 months.. When I asked my ortho about this procedure, he advised me against this as this will require re-fracturing the coccyx and again setting it Ortho gave 3 months medicine - risofos 35,vit d, calcium, evion and one pain killer PLEASE HELP ME ABOUT THIS WHAT EXACTLY NEEDS TO BE DONE
