  • What are the most common things that clinicians miss when treating patients with coccyx pain? 
  • Why don't more clinicians know how to evaluate and treat coccyx pain?
  • What do you mean when you talk about the "chicken and the egg" question when trying to figure out the relationship between coccyx pain and pain throughout the rest of the pelvis or pelvic floor?
