A member asked:
I have a splitting pain in the upper crack of my buttocks. visually nothing appears to be wrong in the area but the pain is severe. what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Buttock pain: It could due to an accident or some trauma. The coccyx is in that area and might have been injured. It is not clear if that has occurred from the information provided. If it persists or has been long-standing, it should be evaluated.
