It is possible for the tailbone to heal itself after a fall, but it needs to be judged according to the degree of injury.
If there is only a localized soft tissue contusion and the tailbone is not injured, or if the tailbone is only slightly cracked and fractured, the injury can be recovered through bed rest, localized hot compresses, and nutritional supplements.
If the tailbone fall is accompanied by more serious fractures, such as displacement of the fracture site, joint dislocation, the possibility of self-healing is unlikely. Conservative treatment can be carried out through bed rest, taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (such as ibuprofen), manipulation and repositioning. When the effect of conservative treatment is not obvious, surgical treatment such as caudal osteotomy, incision and internal fixation should be considered.
After the tailbone fall, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time to clarify the degree of injury and standardize the treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
