Hi! I have been diagnosed with Chronic pelvic pain, visceral pain syndrome and pelvic floor tension myalgia. In the last week my butt has started hurting. I woke up with swelling on the upper left buttock and tailbone and after returning home from the ER I ve started to have left flank pain. The emergency room gave me norco and clindamycin thinking that it may be the forming of an abcess. However, 1 month ago I had 2 dental extractions which ended up with dry socket, infection, and delayed healing resulting in me being on penicillin for almost 2 weeks and percocet for a month. Is there any correlation between my pelvic issue and my butt pain? PLEASE HELP!
HelloI am sure Irrespective of etiology of pelvic and tail bone problem, if you sit in warm water tub (site bath) for 20 minutes twice a day, your pelvic and lower muscles in buttocks shall relax and relieved of pain. Take Advil tabs in addition after meals twice a day for 3-5 days, all your lower area problems shall be relieved. Use a soft foam cushion for a seat instead of hard surface. A muscle relaxant tablet like chloroxozone(paragon) may be added, so ask your doctor, if he agrees, shall prescribe suitable medicines best wishes
