Does anyone have a tailbone that is turned under more than normal? What treatment are you undergoing?

Mine is turned under a bit & I do get pain. When it became too unbearable, I went to the doc & he injected it with Depo-Medrol. Helped right away & lasted quite awhile. I avoid sitting too long, sitting directly on my tailbone, & sitting on hard surfaces.. I also have arthritis in my lower back, & now in my neck.

Does PNE surgery cause the Tailbone to turn under more? That's when my tailbone pain started and never stopped.

Jaxi, I can't say for sure if surgery caused your tailbone problems but if you look at the anatomy pictures http://www.pudendalhope.info/sites/defa ... Female.jpg
you can see how cutting the ST ligament, which many of the PNE surgeons do in the TG approach, could affect the stability of the tailbone.
