Pilonidal Cyst: Is a likely diagnosis. Do you fell a tender boil or "egg" near the top of the midline of your buttocks? Your fall on your tailbone a year ago is not likely the cause. If you have an infected pilonidal cyst it may need to be lanced by a physician for you to heal. See an urgent care for an evaluation. They are usually easily drained as initial treatment.
