Many people ask me why their coccyx x-rays (tailbone x-rays) looked totally normal even though they’re suffering from severe coccyx pain (tailbone pain, coccydynia).
Usually, the answer is that unfortunately their previous x-rays did not include any evaluation of the coccyx bones while they were sitting.
This video shows an example of actual x-rays where the routine coccyx x-rays (done while standing) were normal, but the seated x-rays showed a severe 100% dislocation.
Here is the video link:
Here are some screenshot images from the video:
