In Reply to: Pressure in tailbone when having bowel movement posted by Sandy on November 09, 2000 at 16:18:40:


: Lately when having a bowel movement I have been having pressure/pain internally at my tailbone area. I also have had some constipation. Has anyone experienced this?

Hi Sandy,
With constipaton your stool may get larger causing it to press on your tailbone. You may try taking Metamucil, a bowel regulator, to get rid of the problem.It is safe to take daily---it contains psyllium and you can buy psyllium in capsules from a health food store.Take 4 a day. God Bless-----Harry
