Pain between the coccyx and the anus, not injury related. very sore to sit, walk and bend. never had it before. any kind of relief would be welcome?

Inflammation of coccyx, tailbone can occur without injury as well. Please sit on donut cushion , take sitz bath with epsom salt, take acetaminophen and wait for it to disappear. Hope it helps.

Could be a posterior anal fissure or an abscess. See a colorectal surgeon for evaluation and treatment. Warm sits bath for 10-15 minutes a few times a day may temporarily help.
