Could the hemorrhoids cause pain in the tailbone?
Patient: I have external hemorrhoids that I ve had since my children were born. I am a 33 year old female, healthy, hypothyroidism. Recently, I started experiencing a painful tailbone area. This is new and alarming. I thought it might be a pilonidal cyst, but doctor said she didn t see or feel one. Could this pain in tailbone be caused by the hemorrhoids? Doctor: hihope this msg finds u in good health. i have gone through your complaints and under stand your concern. u r right. .hemorrhoids is one of d reason for tailbone pain..but it is quite uncommon. i suggest u get an xray done to find out whats wrong. u can take analgesics and anti inflammatory tablets. nothing to worry about. hope your question has been answered. if u have any follow up queries, feel free to consult me anytime.  thanks Take care god bless
