My tailbone has been bothering me and I noticed 3 dimples on it. It hurts when I sit and the pain seems to be getting worse. Ive checked again and the 3 dimples have gotten bigger but theres no pus. Ive been playing tennis everyday but I clean myself very well when I shower. What could this be? Thank you for your help
