I feel about four weeks back and my back isn't really getting any better. Should I be alarmed?

1] the exam for a broken coccyx [ tailbone ] hurts like crazy.
2] they can't do anything for it anyway.
3] it will take about four months to heal, with a good two months for any significant improvement felt.
Sorry..... [ I've broken mine several times ]

If it is swollen and tender after so long then there's a good chance it's broken. An xray is the only way to be sure.

You can't. But the correct medical imaging can. See a doctor.

Getting an X-ray would probably tell you.
