Re: [QUAD-L] Coccydynia/coccygodenia

[Fragile]

been reading about a coccygectomy to just have my tailbone removed, don't see the downside if it'll relieve any pain.  Was it strictly for skin problems in your case?  What was the recovery like?  First thing I'll ask the doc.

I was awake during a skin flap. (Surgery performed by the cheif
plastic surgeon from Loyola hosp in Chicago at Hines VA) No more skin
problems, but my animal instincts have decreased. If it is possible
maybe having your tail clipped might help.
