Yes, it is possible to develop Arthritis from a tailbone fracture, particularly if the injury leads to joint damage or chronic inflammation in the area. Over time, this can result in changes to the cartilage and surrounding tissues, potentially leading to osteoarthritis. While not everyone with a tailbone fracture will develop arthritis, those with significant injuries or complications may be at higher risk.
