[|Human|] I ve had tailbone pain for the past 1 1/2 years. I don t remember injuring it at all. The pain is more severe on days that I sit a lot. I asked my doctor about this and she pretty much dismissed it as nothing. Any thoughts on this would be great! Thanks
[|AI|]  Hi Sorry to hear about your problem. You have a condition called COCCODYNIA. This is basically inflammation of the tip of the tail bone. The tip of the tail bone has a set of three very small bones with joints between them. People who sit for long periods of time involving perhaps, a desk job can transmit considerable pressure to the tip of the tail bone. Treatment involves sitting on a ring cushion with a hole at the center of the cushion. You should sit with the tip of your tail bone in the hole and buttocks on either side. Also, injections given at the spot can reduce inflammation at the point. Hope this helps, Do let me know if you have any more queries on this one, Chat Doctor.  Hyderabad. India
