    It could be a spinal compression problem. Gravity is a relentless force. Were going to find a way to hang upside down for about 30 minutes a day and see if it helps.

    Or it could be a dislocated tail bone, or chipped, or a number of other things that could cover muscle, bone, tendon/ligament. It could even be a Pelvic floor muscle sprain and where you're feeling it is in the tail bone.

    The SPECULATION aside. It would be beneficial for you to visit a doctor and get some x-rays. Then you could properly diagnose the issue.

    That would be awesome, if a real doctor existed. She's been to many doctors and none have ever given her any idea what causing it or how to treat it.

    Figure out the 3 or 4 things it might be and treat them all. That how doctors work now days and we can do that a lot cheaper than they can.

    Sometimes you need to go to many, many, many doctors. Even having to do that, it is better than asking people online. It can be a dozen things and would take a very long time to go through them all.

    I had similar pains until I got a new mattress. Mine was 20 years old. Got a new one and the pain resolved overnight.
