question: My 12 year old daughter has had a pain in her tailbone for about 4 months now on and off. She does karate and plays the piano but over the summer vacation has not been attending either. Sitting is becoming very uncomfortable and she gets relief when lying down. She is concerned that she will not be able to sit on the school chairs when she returns in about 3 weeks . We thought that with rest it would have subsided by now but it is still worrying that is has not gone away. I am taking her to see her doctor this week. What can we expect and do you have any advise? Also she has suffered no trauma to that area. Jane
