What Is The Treatment For Pain In Tailbone Area?
I slipped on the stairs and fell landing on my butt. Now I have extreme pain in the lower part part of my back; tailbone area. It has already been 5 days and the pain gets worse when I lay down on my back or sit up. What should I do to ease the pain? I don t have insurance and cannot go to the doctor.
