H After a recent journey sitting awkwardly on a bus I have developed pain in my tailbone. It was excruciating but has become less painful over the last couple of days thanks to painkillers. I can feel a hard immovable lump just above my left buttock which is painful to touch and seems to be the source of my pain. Any ideas? Thanks Nick
