I'm really worried because I've been dealing with this pain just above the tip of my coccyx for the past 7 years. I've been taking diclofenac sodium and paracetamol, but I'm looking for a more permanent solution, maybe something homeopathic. It's really tough because I can't sit for long periods and any jerking motion makes it worse, even small movements are painful. The pain is now spreading to my legs, and I occasionally get a fever when it's bad. My MRI results showed a disc bulging at L5S1, nerve compression, lumbar lordosis, and acute angulation of the coccyx. I'm 31 years old and would really appreciate some advice on a suitable long-term solution or medication.
