Pain And Pinching Sensation In Tailbone And Lower Back Pain. Is This A Cause For Concern?

I am having pain in my tailbone, which has recently expanded to include my lower back. I have also recently started to feel a pinching sensation in my tailbone when I walk, stand up from sitting for a while, or lift certain items. Should I be concerned?

Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM.
In my opinion pain in the lower back (at the level of tail bone) is due to disc related problems(degeneration/dehydration) which need evaluation.Consult an bone specialist for further management.Hope this helps.
