Suggest Remedy For Sore Hard Bumps On The End Of Tailbone

Hello I have had these hard bone-like bumps on the end of my tailbone. I have had them for about 8 to 9 years now and at first they were moveable and painless so i thought nothing of them, but now they seem to be really sore and no longer move causing pain from sitting and walking. It started about two days ago and I have yet to see a doctor. Has anyone experience something similar to this?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. see as per your complain your pain is in acute condition or exacerbated due to some injury or posture, as you mentioned pain in tailbone may due to constant pressure over the last bone due to improper sitting and lying habits, this is known as coccydynea (pain in tailbone) see you need to take rest ultimate option is prevent weight bearing over that part, lying down in side is good. see your physiotherapist and take ultrasound treatment for 15 days continuously twice a day. which subsides your pain and inflammation. dont apply heating modality to pain ful part. apply ice and analgesic cream while sleeping. i hope you have satisfied with this answer.
