Hello,

It is possible that there may be a fractured tailbone, but also muscles strained in that area may result in similar symptoms.

The situation may be clarified with simple diagnostic tools such as x-rays of your tailbone.

So, I think you should see your Doctor and ask for an x-ray.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Erion Spaho, Neurologist, Surgical
