Help - exercise suggestions with a broken tailbone

I would ask your orthopedist what they recommend. I would think as with any broken bone rest would be key especially in the first few weeks.

Oh my God that hurts so much! I have a complete pars defect, so the little bones on top of my sacrum fractured. It's been nearly a year and I'm just now able to do more than just walk. Swimming is probably the best, just don't push too hard too soon. I had a real hard time sitting, but I purchased a balance ball and some small 3lb. weights and I could do some arm exercises. Anything heavier than that and I felt like my spine was going to poke through my skin. The balance ball and some therabands were probably the most I could do at first, aside from floating in a pool. Just remember, if it hurts don't do it. That was the best advice anyone could have given me. I was pushing too hard and only causing more inflammation, so actually resting was hard for me, but It started the healing process. Everyone is different. A physical therapist may be able to suggest some exercises for you. Best of luck and I really hope that you heal quickly!
