A member asked:
Is the skin between on our tailbone or between our buttocks supposed to be slightly red? i sit a lot and often have mild tailbone bone pain when sitting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If the skin is redder than surrounding skin, that suggests irritation from excessive and persistent pressure. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs.
