I am still in high school and my tailbone hurts when i sit and stand. i do sit alot, but that is because i attend school. should i visit my doctor?

Coccyx pain: Tail bone pain is most commonly associated with sitting a lot, not so common when standing thought that can happen. I would suggest seeing your pediatrician for a recommendation for an over the counter medication to help you out.
