A member asked:
I fell on my tail bone about 10yrs ago and since then it has felt like a raisin sized lump has been floating at the tip, could it be a bone fragment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tail bone bone chip: Yes, this could be a bone fragment from your coccyx (tailbone). This can be confirmed with a x-ray.
