Tail bone?

Question:

Tail bone?

i went skiing for the first time last week...and fell on my butt a thousand times. i think i screwed up my tail bone. it hurts really bad. i'm a dancer and i haven't been able to go to practices. is there any exercise i can do to make it better? my coach told me to rest for a couple of days. i did. its been a week. and i'm anxious to dance again. please help.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: As they say time heals all. This is especially true with a tailbone injury. The tailbone in fact, apparently serves no purpose other than an injury waiting to happen, and hurtful at that. As you rest it will cease. This may be a prolonged rest and can take several weeks depending on severity.
