Coccydynia: An inflammation of the tailbone or coccyx which is located between the buttocks. Usually patients have pain and tenderness at the tip of the tailbone and pain is often worsened by sitting. Use of well-padded seat when sitting and avoidance of long periods of sitting can help relief the pain. Use of anti-inflammatory meds can help. If symptoms persist or worsens, have her be seen.
