Pain at the tip of my tailbone. Should I get it checked out?!


Question: Pain at the tip of my tailbone!. Should I get it checked out!?
I have kind of hypochondriatic tendencies, so I'm asking here so I don't have to bother a doctor about it if it's no big deal!.

When I'm sitting and the tip of my tailbone touches the seat I get a sharp pain and I have to move to sit differently!. Also, if I touch the same point, it feels like I have a small lump, and it hurts a lot if touched!. It also feels very uncomfortable for a few minutes afterward if touched directly!. It's been happening for like a year, but I kept writing it off as something temporary!.
Should I be worried or get it checked out!? Or is it just my mind getting carried away!?
Also, any ideas what this could be!?

By the way, I've fallen hard on my tailbone two or three times in my life, in case that makes any difference!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
YES! You have to go see an orthopedic very soon, because when you fell on your tailbone you may have broken or fractured it!. I fractured my tailbone a few years ago when I used to figure skate and people tried to tell me that it was just bruised!. A few weeks later, they took an ex-ray and saw that it was fractured!. It still hurts when I sit on it directly for long periods of time, but because it was only fractured and in such an inconvenient location they couldn't fix it or anything!.

You really need to see an orthopedic before your tailbone gets worse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

in a case like this, the fall r falls have bruised coccyx bone the end bone of your spine
sine the main nerve runs through the spine ending at the tailbone !. the exterior bruising has subsided but the interior is still quite tender!. perfectly normal!. it will take a month or two before your rear bone is normal again!. since you said you exhibit hypochondriac tendencies, you may want to alleviate your high anxieties and go to the doctor and Au him or her the fee for having told you the same as i have for freeWww@Answer-Health@Com
