I am sure that you already had a CT scan. Could this be nerve damage? Did you ever over exercise when you were little?

I also had horrific pain in this area! Sitting was horrible, felt like I was sitting on a hot poker and when I would get up the poker was being pulled out. Had MRI and it showed a cracked Tailbone!!!! What it did not show was a broken tailbone that was hanging by a thread. This was found when I had surgery to remove tailbone!

I've had a few MRIs and x-rays but not CT scan yet. What might that show? I was not an over-exerciser. I'm 37 and in pretty good shape (especially after standing for 7 months!) but have never been a hard runner or biker or anything like that.

Sounds awful! My pain is right on my sitz bones - it's very precise and the MRIs haven't shown any breaks or disc issues. I think it might be nerves but can't seem to find a way to identify it.

I still have pain when I sit or lay on back to long. It has been 6 yrs now so I know how you feel. Saw a Dr. at Rochester who checked nerves by poking area with a pin. Did you or can you have this test done? I think it was a Neurogilst.

I’m glad you found what was the problem. I had CT, X-rays, injections, therapy, osteopathic treatment and nothing.

I don’t know how much longer I can take this madness without a solution. I can’t sit. 10 months. Massive pain. 🙁
