Tailbone Pain

CouchSurfin

I'm 22w/2 days and have the worst tail bone pains. Any suggestions?

Ugh, I'm with you. I have no idea why this happens!! I find it's worse after a long day at work.

I do too! I am only 14 weeks and I have always had tailbone pain because I feel down steps about 7 years ago but it has gotten 100x worse since I've been pregnant!

Yup. It's because your tailbone shifts position. 

@Hrc724 Same here. I used to get cysts that would get infected and burst because my tailbone was so irritated and over time a sinus built up and made it worse. I was actually given acutane some years ago to clear it up (it wasn't acne but apparently it works because the cysts are gone, the sinus is gone and the pain is gone too - if you get these cysts as a result of a tailbone trauma, acutane is the way to go. just do NOT NOT NOT take it while pregnant or breastfeeding. Causes the kid to become severely mutilated pretty much 100% of the time) 

Now suddenly my tailbone hurts all over again, just in a different spot. Doctor says it has nothing to do with my old injury and is because of the shift in its position. It's normal. It sucks. Tylenol might help a little, as will warm compresses, warm baths and shifting position a lot. Don't sit much anyway. It's unhealthy to sit for long periods of time.

I had this as well.  Found cold really helped treat mine.  Worth a look into this back wrap to treat.
