Suggest Treatment For Back Pin And Weakness

my 17 year old son hurt his back yesterday doing some workouts and weightlifting. Today his tailbone has a drilling sensation deep inside the bone and spine. The pain comes on gradually then feels like the back is giving out with no strength. Please advise what the problem may be.
