Hello,
He may be suffering from an injury to the tailbone along with it compressive neuropathy. Use tablet pregabalin 75 mg once daily for five days.
Check it out MRI lumbar spine or x-ray LS spine. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
