What Causes Severe Pain Shooting From The Tail Bone To The Leg?

I cracked my tailbone on 7-19, I have a really bad pain shooting from that area down my right leg. It has gotten worse over the past three days. The pain is so bad I have brused my hip and leg trying to rub it out. It is very painful to bare weight and burns when I do. Please direct me in the right direction. Thank you, Jami
