Hello,
Coccygodynia-Pain in tail bone is very resistant to treatment.Try physiotherapy for six weeks.Sit hot water tub for 10 to 15 mins.Use holed cushion/Air tube for sitting.If all these fail, Injection therapy could be considered.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
