I broke mine giving birth to my daughter. It hurt for about 2 years and sitting on hard surfaces for long periods still hurts, 9 years later. Of course, now I can say I busted my a$$ to have kids. ---

Wow. I hurt my foot about 8 months ago and went to the hospital and got x-rays and examinations and such only to be told that it is fine. I wear a brace on it at night still because it isn’t 100% yet but they just keep telling me it is fine. I hate to think how much worse it would be if that kind of thing happened to my butt! You have my sympathies. ---

There aren’t many people to whom I would admit that I broke my butt, once again proving that Dopers are the greatest!
