Lower tailbone pain now leg pain?
I am 9 weeks post-op and honestly just thought this was WLS related. I cannot sit in one spot to long without being in pain and needed to move around it feels like my very low tailbone near upper bum area. Also yesterday i started noticing leg pain as well and wondering if this is all normal and part of the weight loss?
If the pain is shooting or radiating down your leg/legs it's most likely a sciatica nerve problem. Probably nothing to do with your WLS. I'd see a doc right away. No need to stay in pain. It usually resolves in time, and with exercises, but you may need a strong pain reliever to get through the rough spot.
I have the same issue with my tail bone right above my crack. I went to the doctors and found out my spine is at a 90 degree angle and my tailbone sticks out of my skin a little above my crack like a tail. He said I either broke it as a kid or born that way, I've always been bothered by it at movies or sitting on a bad chair but not that I've lost weight I have the pain all the time! Get it checked
