What Causes Tingling Sensation At Base Of Spine Tail Bone?
I have a tingling sensation at the base of my spine tailbone. It comes and goes every few seconds. When it first started a few days ago it felt like air was coming out of my spine. It is not painful. I have osteoperois and have unexplained problems with my joints. I am 57 years old.

Hello,
Since you suffer from osteoporosis a fracture that may compress nerves at the tailbone region should be considered.
An x-rays film is a simple way to evaluate this possibility. Discuss with your Doctor for these issues.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take Care
