Tailbone pain may be caused by injury to the lumbar spine, which can result from stiffness or overuse. It can present as structural pain in the limbs and may be accompanied by symptoms such as a sensation of sinking, numbness, or tingling. Typically, when the pain originates from the tailbone and radiates toward the abdomen, almost all activities will exacerbate the discomfort.
