Strain?: Why a colonoscopy at your age? Hard to say if it is related to your procedure. Muscles that control bowel movements attach to the coccyx. Pain with motion suggests muscle strain or tightness. Let your doctor know

Unfortunately: This will ache for a while. Coccygodynia is difficult to treat. The ligaments may have been stretched during the procedure and sometimes anti inflammatory medications or steroid injection into the area may help. See a doctor.
