A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tailbone fracture?: You may have fractured your tailbone, which will take some time to heal and will be sensitive while it dose. The pain in your right thigh can be from several things (a bruised gluteus maximus, a strained ileal-tibeal band, strained quadriceps, or sciatica from a compressed nerve root). If your pain is bad enough, see your doctor. Physical therapy or other interventions might help you heal.
