      Hello, tailbone or coccygeal pain can be because of multiple reasons like trauma, prolonged sitting and pressure over the area, abnormal posture etc. Since you have mentioned that you had a fall prior to the onset of pain and there is no relief with pain killers I would suggest you see an orthopedician for detailed clinical examination to rule out any fracture and if necessary for evaluation.

      Hi…It’s coccydynia… as already Dr advised.. better consult Orthopaedic dr, meanwhile Avoid sitting over hard surface., use soft Cushion while sitting.
