Hi, I am a 40 year old woman. Mother of two adults. From last 15 days I am facing back pain in tail bone. Firstly it is normal pain but with time it is increasing and now it's sometimes unbearable.

If pain is only limited to tail bone then it is coccydynia.
You need to use coccydynia pillow, sitz bath and some analgesics.
