What does a stress fracture in a tailbone feel like compared to muscular pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Point tender: usually it is a point tender pain over the tailbone versus diffuse muscular pain Both are tender and can feel the same though the tailbone hurts more with sitting and moving. Anti inflammatories and warm/cold soaks can help
