Case Discussion
A recent patient that was referred to us with a history of intractable pelvic pain, despite analgesics and physiotherapy in the two months since an episode of acute trauma. The patient was unable to sit in the office for more than five minutes and could not sit on hard seats. MRI confirmed the presence of traumatic bone marrow edema of the coccyx.
