What Could Burning Tail Bone With Tingling Leg And Feet Suggest?

I had been in an accident last month. Tuesday I had recieved an xray but I have to wait until Monday to see my doctor and get the results. My lower back near my tail bone feels like its on fire. It feels like something is poking me from the inside also my right leg has been tingly for weeks down to my feet. It started at my inside hip then just got worse over time. Any idea what this could be. I have no health insurance so I can t afford all the hospital bills.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi
You have probably hurt your tail bone and may be having compression of the roots in the vertebral column. the X ray will make the picture clear, about your fracture of the tail bone, you should take care of the spine as well and can consult a spine surgeon and consult him, if needed can get an MRI done.
I find this answer helpful
