Yeah I saw my Acupuncturist 3 weeks ago and told her about it and she said she'd be able to help me but I don't feel it really did much. I think the pillow Mum bought me has helped.
I've kind of put it on the 'to do later' list as I've been so busy looking after my DD but now that things are settling down a little and I can focus that little bit more on my health!! I will make an appointment with a physio I think.
Ouchies, this is something I'll be aware of now, thanks Ren!
I too broke my coccyx playing soccer (the one and only time I ever did, how's that for luck?) as a teenager. But in my x-rays it's kinda pointing to the side, so hopefully not in the way for my vbac whenever that happens.
I do remember not being able to sit on hard floors for months though, Ren. Didn't bother me walking and such, but sitting took ages to feel okay. Hope you heal quickly!
(Oh, and as a side point, when I saw someone about it they pretty much said there was nothing they could do from the bone POV, so it's only down to pain relief, I think).
My DS1's big head dislocated mine in childbirth. It went unnoticed because it wasnt causing any pain afterwards and then one day a few weeks later I had this huge sneeze and it popped back in. I apparently damaged the soft tissue around it when it popped back in and it has never been the same since. I can't even sit in the car for too long on our drives to QLD without having to shift for comfort. Its a constant pain.
I would recommend getting it checked just to make sure that it is just healing and you cant damage it any further.
