    I'm not as far as you... but I broke my tailbone when I was a kid... and everyonce in a while I have terrible aches in the tailbone area and my upper butt cheeks.

    Low back pain is a symptom of PTL. I would call the nurse just to be safe.

    I have sciatic pain for 2 years and now that I am pregnant its so bad..

    The best thing is either ice or heat 15 minutes each hour.. or even try epsom salt in a warm bath until the water gets cold...

    Hi there...

    My response is going to sound very similiar to another repsonse in an above post and so I apoligize if it sounds like I'm repeating myself...

    Anyways, right around the same time frame I started to realize that my lower back would really stary to hurt toward the end of the day or after going shopping, cleaning etc... I dont "think" my pain was sciatica but rather due to extra weight, baby position, etc..

    Regardless, back pain can be so difficult to pin point. I hope you feel better!!!

    I feel like i have a knife through my tailbone lately. I had it a few weeks back and then it seemed to improve, but it returned this past weekend, and then I over did it cleaning yesterday and its awful today.. OUCH. I don't know what it is.. but it HURTS.

    I have had terrible sciatic nerve pain for the past several weeks.  My doc said that there is not much that can be done other than try resting on the opposite side of where you feel the pain.  I have the pain on my left side, so resting on my right side really helped to alleviate some of the pressure.  I hope you are able to find some relief soon!
