No relief from Ayurvedic treatment or ChatGPT advice, manual treatment worked

I experienced a fall in my bathroom, which resulted in a minor hairline fracture in my tailbone. Two days later, I consulted a doctor, who confirmed the fracture and advised me to take adequate rest, assuring me that it would heal over time.
I followed the advice and rested for two months. Although the fracture healed, the pain persisted. Despite taking an additional two months of rest, there was no improvement. I then consulted an orthopaedic doctor, who recommended physiotherapy. I underwent 10 days of physiotherapy, followed by a month of rest; however, the pain did not subside.
Upon revisiting the doctor, I was advised to take another course of physiotherapy for seven days. I followed this as well and rested again for a month, but unfortunately, the pain continued. During this time, I found it difficult to sit without support, such as a pillow, and I could not walk for extended periods.
Subsequently, I sought Ayurvedic treatment. The Ayurvedic doctor recommended therapies including Janu Basti, Kati Basti, Abhyanga (full-body massage), and steam therapy. I underwent these treatments for 10 days, followed by another month of rest. Despite this, my condition did not improve. I even completed an additional five days of therapy, but the pain remained unchanged.
Feeling frustrated and concerned, I searched for solutions on ChatGPT. I followed various suggested remedies, including rest and exercises, but none provided relief.
Eventually, I came across the profile of Dr. Pankaj Chaudhary (see Doctors and specialists in India), who had received positive reviews for treating tailbone pain. After reviewing his work and patient feedback, I scheduled an appointment. During my visit, I was initially anxious about the treatment process. However, after undergoing the prescribed procedure and exercises, I experienced immediate and significant relief. For the first time in months, I was able to sit without a pillow and walk comfortably.
This improvement was far beyond my expectations. After a long period of physical discomfort and emotional distress, I finally found relief. I am deeply grateful for the care and effective treatment I received, which significantly improved my quality of life.
