A member asked:
Can you advise for tailbone sticking out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably normal: Most likely it's just the way you're built, esp if you are very thin. An x-ray could be done to confirm that your underlying anatomy is normal. If you're not having any symptoms it's probably nothing to worry about.
