Localized tailbone pain.
Fell on a tree stump at the age of 11, landed directly on my tailbone. Could not walk right for almost two months. Was not sent to the doctors for treatment (Fathers decision). I'm 38 now, and had to give up hockey a few years ago because I could not walk for three days after one competitive work hockey game. Just recently, it has been a constant pain and seems to be getting worse. Just started daily walks with the wife a month ago for exercise, pain started shortly after.
