A member asked:

Doc was at a funeral, sat on a hard surface for over 4 hours, the next day my lower back (tail bone) has been in pain, i cant sit or walk properly ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Coccydynia: Due to prolonged sitting you probably injured or inflamed the tail bone. It is self limiting, gets better in few weeks. You can use heat or ice, use doughnut cushion to sit and lean forward. OTC pain reliever if necessary.
