What Causes Hard Bone Like Lump In Buttocks?
Question: Hi, I just discovered a object in my butt crack, and thought it might be my tail bone. It does not bother me (yet)
but am a little concerned. I have no other problems that I know of. I have started to do some stretching excersizes, but don't know how they can be connected. I can almost push it away , gently , but don't know if
that is good? Thanks in advance for any help. We are going on holidays for 2 weeks, starting today.
