Tail Bone Surgery?
Has anyone here had the surgery to remover their tail bone? Mine has been hurting for about three months and is slowly getting worse. The doc on one of the other sites suggested just getting it removed. It sounds like a good idea except for the six weeks of recovery.

I thought you needed your tailbone... to protect your spinal cord.

"In rare cases, the surgeon can perform a coccygectomy, or removal of the tailbone. The surgery can increase the risk of a perineal hernia (weakened pelvic muscles supporting the rectum) later in life, but otherwise is considered effective and relatively low risk."
Hmmm..... nah!

It may not be your tail bone
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilonidal_cyst
I had this removed when I was 16 after taking a standup jet ski on the tailbone.. A guy I rode with for years had his removed at 35.. Its pretty common and injuries in that area can spur it on.
