My tail bone area and lower back area feels sore from.the last couple of days. I didn't fall down or anything. The pain goes away while I am walking but as soon as I sit down it starts to hurt . I don't know what's wrong. Is it because I am mostly sitting in front of the laptop the whole day?
I do go for walks in the evening for an hour.

Hello
The complains you described gives me the following reasons
1. If there is pain as soon as you touch that area and there is redness or swelling and if you have fever it could be a superficial infection
2. If pain is more on sitting and when you touch the bone hard at the tip , it could be coccydynia that is inflammation of the tip of your tail bone
Put ice
Use ring cushion
Avoid hard surfaces
Take a pain medication
Do consult if it does not subside
Thnks
