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.
Eventually, the bone will regain all of its original strength and will be completely healed. If the fracture is not severe, the healing time will take 3 to 6 weeks, provided that you rest. There is no magic way of getting a bone to heal, because the body will heal it on its own in due time. In the meantime, take it easy and get some rest. After a couple of weeks, you should begin to feel better.
