Did I injure my tailbone?

Question:

Ok I am 15 and play football yesterday I fell pretty had on someone's facemask. I think I may have bruised my tailbone. I have pain when sitting and when getting up it hurts more I can't run to fast without pain. Should I go to a doctor. I don't fell as though a minor-moderate pain is ER stuff but I can still go????

Answers:
No harm in getting an xray done. You might have a hairline fracture. If not, it could just be the impact of the hard thing hitting you. Never take these things lightly ...so do go to a doc.

i wouldnt go unless it gets worse. even if you did there is not much they can do to help. try taking warm baths.
