Broken ButtBone

Post by **Redbelly** » December 4th, 2006, 7:54 am

Anybody ever cracked your coccyx?

I had a freak fall at the dining table, while putting on a sock the chair legs gave way, and I did a cannonball on the floor.

It is painfull. And from what I've been told, and read it will be several weeks or more for it to heal.

Aggravating too. It cut into my outdoor activities this weekend. Gonna order a cushion especially for broken butts.

Everything I do turns out to be a real pain in the azz.

Been there, done that. It takes a while to heal and you look like an old man until it does.

Sorry to hear about your fall Redbelly

It's hard to imagine any kind of activity where that injury wouldn't be a problem. Just be careful...

maybe you should consider a skeg guard??

Kinda gives new meaning to the phrase "I just busted my arse".

Hope you get well soon.

I did that about 25 years, ago falling from a horse.

The main advantage I had, was I also cracked 4 ribs, a collarbone and dislocated my shoulder.

I hurt in so many places, that I almost forgot about the rear end.

I suggest you crack a couple of ribs to take your mind of it.

Go to the maternity dept. of Walmart or Target...they'll have an inflatable butt cushion

Pregnant women routinely break their tailbone giving birth. Definitely makes fishin' tough. Hope you heal up fast

My wife has no sympathy for me as she broke hers with our firstborn son.

I broke mine 4 years ago because I fell down a flight of stairs and it took almost 6 months to heal and I got a wheel barrow tube and filled it up with air and sat on it and that took care of a lot of the pain

Most of my serious injuries occurred while I was doing some activity on my boat. I think I will be more carefull the next time I go to get my socks on.

Breaking your azz bone has got to be more painful than shoulder surgery.

Hope you heal quickly... . RB
