How Can Severe Pain In The Tailbone Be Treated?

I fell yesterday and landed on my tailbone...........since then it I have had considerable pain in that area when I sit on any surface: soft cushion or hard chair. Leaning forward while sitting helps. It s Saturday and tomorrow is Easter Sunday. Question: Should I go to the Emergency Room for x-rays today or tomorrow?

Hello -
Hopefully you have had xrays by now, to rule out an injury to your coccyx. While it shouldn't have been an emergency, I hope you are feeling better by now.
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
