A member asked:
There is painful pressure being put on my coccyx whenever i sit on a hard surface. does this mean i'm too skinny?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: There are many reasons for that. If you had a fall in the past, it could have been injured from that. If you are a woman and have had kids, the coccyx can be injured during child birth.
