Talk to Orthopedic Surgeon on Tailbone Injury / Severe Lower Back Pain
Asking for Mother, Female, 50 years old, Sialkot
My mother (age 51, approx 80kg) suffered a high-impact injury 15 days ago while traveling on a bike. On a speed breaker, she landed forcefully on the metal rear carrier (grab rail) while sitting sideways. The impact was directly on her tailbone (coccyx). Since then, she has persistent sharp pain that makes sitting and standing very difficult. We have tried applying Move and Diclofenac gels, but there is no relief. There is no visible swelling, but the pain is deep and hasn't improved in two weeks. Looking for advice on whether an X-ray is needed and what the next steps should be.
