Now I hav somewhat a hard time walking down the stairs I have to old my butt in order for it not to hurt and I can t sleep on it
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Based on your symptoms, it could be coccydynia, a painful condition related to the tail bone. As of now, you can take analgesics such as ibuprofen or diclofenac tablets. If the pain persists even after 5-7 days, you can consult an orthopedic surgeon. An MRI of lower back may be required for evaluation. As of now, there is no need to worry. I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Best wishes, Chat Doctor. Ly/
