Thnx Janet.U sound very sweet and kind thank you for the feedback

My pain decreased major ( its been a week still after the big attack). My tailbone started hurting now as though Im pregnant.. with lower back pain symptoms.. U guys mentioned Sij earlier... to tell u the truth I didnt know what u guys were talking about (I thought it was typing error ) I searched... Seems I have something like that as well. If that is the case and its treated right is there any chance of cure?

Is it bad to kick due to the pain or due to muscle and tone growth? If it doesnt hurt is it safe to swim by kicking? or max we can do is float with splashing arms?

You have to use your best judgement though since everyone is different. It it hurts, you probably should quit the activity.

We had a big discussion about body types on our old forum and in the end while it seemed like there were quite a few thin people, there were also some who considered themselves overweight. I'm thin, medium height.

Once you have sacroiliac joint dysfunction you may have to be careful the rest of your life. It depends on what's causing it. For instance in my case I had chronic ligament strain from weightlifting and Dr. Bautrant told me when he did surgery that my ligaments were hardened and sclerosed at age 47. So I know I'll have to be careful the rest of my life. The younger you are the better chance you have for recovery.
