Physical Injury
In our chiropractic practice, physical injury is the most common cause of tailbone pain. An injury usually occurs after an unusual (traumatic) force is applied to the coccyx (tailbone) area.

Pathological Process of a Disease
When suspecting a pathology, we refer the patient to other medical specialists to evaluate and rule out the pathology. MRI of coccyx is one of the tests that can rule out some of the pathologies of coccyx and pelvic area. You can review some of disorder of tailbone here.
Psychological Factors
Although there is a possibility of psychosomatic reflexes or psychological causes of tailbone pain, we have not observed such clinical cases in our practice.
Idiopathic
When the source of the tailbone pain is unknown or obscure, it can be an idiopathic tailbone pain. Some of the idiopathic tailbone pain can be due to the gradual traumatic forces.
