I have lost a large amount of weight and lost a large amount of fat in my buttocks.because of this i have constant tailbone pain. I had injections for the pain in my tailbone as well as therapy. Is it possible to have from other parts of my body injected into my buttocks to help with cushioning of my tailbone.
