Tailbone pain (coccydynia) is often blamed on the coccyx itself — but in many cases, the true source of pain is injury to the coccygeal and sacral nerves, not the bone.

In this video, Dr. Tim Tollestrup, pain-focused peripheral nerve surgeon in Las Vegas, explains why coccyx removal surgery can lead to serious complications and how a nerve-based surgical approach can safely and effectively relieve chronic tailbone pain.

Dr. Tollestrup discusses:

Why tailbone pain is frequently misdiagnosed as a structural problem

The role of coccygeal nerves and the dorsal rami of S5

How diagnostic nerve blocks help identify the true pain source

A minimally invasive surgical option that targets damaged nerves — not the coccyx

Why preserving pelvic stability is critical

If you’ve suffered from tailbone pain after trauma, repetitive stress, or failed treatments, this video offers an important alternative perspective on treatment.

Richie’s feet went numb. His balance disappeared. Surfing—his passion—felt impossible.

After living with bilateral peripheral neuropathy, Richie found Dr. Tim Tollestrup. Two carefully planned surgeries later, his balance, dexterity, and confidence returned.

Today, he’s surfing again—better than ever.

This is what happens when nerve pain is properly diagnosed and treated.

After three and a half years of debilitating abdominal wall pain — and 32 doctors, including specialists at Johns Hopkins — Jeff finally found answers with Dr. Tim Tollestrup, pain-focused peripheral nerve surgeon in Las Vegas.

Jeff’s pain began as a “pin prick” in the rectus abdominis that progressed to 8–10/10 stabbing, burning episodes that dropped him to his knees. No hernias. No GI diagnosis. No solutions.

Everything changed when he discovered Dr. Tollestrup’s videos on ACNES (Anterior Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome) — and realized the symptoms were identical to his own.
