What Causes Pain In The Tailbone Area?
My daughter has had tailbone pain for a couple of weeks. Had an X-ray and no fracture. Dr. Said to watch for worsening symptoms and to advise if any problems with bowel movements. Last couple of days she has seen a small amount of blood when she wipes. What could this be?

Hello,
Please let me know whether she had a history of injury, sprain, heavy weight lifting.
For that, you can take tab. motrin and apply diclofenac gel or spray with heating pads.
In case of not getting relief, I would suggest you to MRI back after orthopedic consultation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
