Return to Sports After a Tailbone Injury. A bruised tailbone may take several days to weeks to completely heal. A fractured tailbone can take 4 to 6 weeks. In general, you should be able to return to activities slowly as you heal. A full return to sports may depend upon the sport you play, but you need to be able to sit, bend, walk without pain.
Screws, bolts and metal plates facilitate the healing of the bones, but do not make the recuperating process any easier for the victim. The healing time of a broken pelvis is about 6 - 9 weeks if you are of good health, older people those who may have osteoprosis may take even longer to fully heal from a severe break. Young women tend to take less time healng from a broken pelvic bone than men do.
