What Causes Pressure Sensation In The Coccyx?

Hi. For the past 10 days or more, I have had a feeling of pressure in my tailbone area. It will cause pain to generate to my hips and down the back of my legs to my knees and it feel almost like a nerve pain. I figured it was just getting older pain, but two friends that I work with are complaining of the same thing and they are much younger than me. Could it be viral?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your pain may be related to your sitting habits that's why your other 2 colleagues also suffered from the same problem. You should go for physiotherapy for relieving pain. Possibilities are there that nerve may be compressed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
