Talk to experienced orthopedist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
You will have to be examined and then possibly an MRI scan will be needed to see what could be the specific reason for the pain. It may be coming from the inflammation around the tail bone or may be due to inflammation to the tissues around the tailbone.
An MRI scan will help in getting more information to help in further management.
Hope this helps.
