Tailbone Pain
About a week ago, I had a sudden onset of pain in my tailbone area. There was no injury. The only out of the ordinary thing that happened before this is I had minor lower back pain for a day or two. It is extremely tender to touch. I have been icing it and taking Advil, but it is only getting worse.
