Coccydynia Posted: 04-12-07 14:54pm
It sounds like you have coccydynia, which
is a fancy way of saying "pain and
inflammation at the coccyx". If it is
better when you sit on a soft chair or
lean backwards to avoid putting direct
pressure on it, this could be what you
have. Some people are anatomically
predisposed to this or they have an injury
to this area. If the pain persists, you
should consult a doctor, or better yet, an
osteopath for reccomendations and
tratment. I assume you have checked for
golf balls...

I'm going thru the same thing right now.
I'm having a hard time pin pointing where
the pain is coming from...my anus or my
tailbone. I see this post was in April.
Did you get any answers on you pain?
