What Causes Lump On The Tailbone Along With Severe Pain?

Hi, I was playing around with my friend and act like I was going to jump on him and then he lifted his knee and hit my talebone pretty hard. In the mornings when I wake up it seems fine but throughout the day it worsens to the point that it hurts to walk. The lump I have is on my left side but it hurts like hell to move my right left. Bending, walking, sitting or anything with movement hurts . on a scale of 1 to 10, its a 50. I want to cry and scream because the pain is too much. I have no health insurance at the moment and im still paying off my other medical bill. The size of the lump is as big as a golf ball. Please help

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be attributed to musculo-skeletal injury .
X ray of Lumbo sacral spine & Pelvis will be helpful to rule out any fracture or other pathological causes.

Symptomatic relief can be obtained by heat therapy, application of analgesic & muscle relaxant gel, intake of analgesics like Diclofenac (to be taken after food) + Pantoprazole (to be taken 30 minutes before meals).
Supplements of Calcium & Vitamin D can be included in diet which will help in strengthening of bones.
Physiotherapy exercise will also be helpful.

If symptoms still persist, kindly consult an Orthopedician for proper clinical examination.
Also, maintain adequate hydration & nutrition status, take proper rest and avoid stress.
Wishing you a Good Health.
Take care.
