But I feel pain after walking 2-3 kms, and had 3 times minor dislocations where the joint itself Came back to its place automatically.

Tail bone.

I have pain near my tailbone, but only while sleeping. When I try to change positions in bed, the pain is extremely severe, and I need support to turn over.
