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.
Sometimes a direct hit to a bone or an injury to a bone that was unhealthy can cause a break, and that break generally grinds any physical activity you were involved with to a screeching halt. Minor bone fractures can take as little as 6 weeks to heal, while larger breaks can take 3 or 4 months. Some bones, depending on where they are located or how many breaks are present also require months of physical therapy after the healing process to ensure full use and range of motion returns.
