Question - Lunges and Tailbone Pain

When I do lunges, I get excruciating pain in my tailbone, only when I lunge on my right leg. I usually just do body weight squats and that doesn't bother me at all, even when I alternate legs. But as it stands, I am unable to do lunges do to the tailbone pain.

Any advice?

Thanks so much!

It is odd that you can do squats but not lunges. My best advice would be to see your doctor and have a full examination to determine the cause of this problem. Could be a minor muscle strain or it could be something more serious. The best thing to do is avoid aggravating activities (like lunges) until you get it checked out.
