What To Do If I Hurt The Tailbone While Doing Jiu Jitsu And Experiencing Pain While Moving?
My boyfriend does jiu jitsu and we believe he pulled something around his tailbone. He is in a lot of pain when he moves. Pressure on the tailbone such as sitting or standing doesn't really bother him. What can we do to elevate this uncomfort he has?
