A member asked:

How many months does it take for tailbone pain to go away? only hurts when i sit on it and pain seems to be getting worse when i sit on it even for a minute. it's been more than 2 months. do i need to see a doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can examine: Tailbone pain is usually from a bruised or broken tailbone due to trauma to the tailbone. A doctor can evaluate and confirm the diagnosis. Anti-inflammatory drugs like Motrin can help. Tailbone injuries are annoying because of the long healing time. The tailbone moves a bit every time a person sits, stands, or walks, so healing can be difficult. Sometimes, pain can be from a tailbone tumor.
