Why Does My Coccyx Bone Hurt?

Hi. I fell down the stair yesterday am. I have hurt my coxis bone. Was take to A&E but no xray was done. It seems to getting worse. I can bend it really hurts to sit down/lay dwn and to get up. It also hurts to go to the toilet. Could this be a fracture?

Yes it seems to be fracture.But any other sensation loss in your leg? Xray will help a lot.And by taking over the counter pain killers if pain subsides then its unlikely a fracture.Fracture will be associated with continious pain as well as swelling.Get evaluated with physician.
