Popping Coccyx

blondie1906

I am 15 weeks along and noticed that my tailbone keeps popping and making a crunchy sound and makes my back sore......I never had my tailbone pop a lot like this.......now every time I move it pops or crunches......what could it be

I'm not a doctor by any means, but are you sure it's your coccyx? Although those bones aren't fused (your sacrum is), they can have very little movement and I've heard of them being manually cracked, but not any other way that I know of anyway. I don't have any advice for why your back would hurt when your tail bone is just above your anus, but you could have very tight muscles in your lower back, hips, and hamstrings, all of which can cause lower back pain. I'd talk to your doctor about it at your next visit or give them a call if you can't wait that long. Hope you feel better
