Is my Root Chakra underactive or overactive?

Whenever I'm sitting in a chair and bring attention to the base of my spine, I can feel my tailbone (or an area near my tailbone) heating up. And it feels like there's some kind of ball inside my perineum that gets grows and shrinks with each breath (is that the Root Chakra?). I also get tingling sensations in my legs. I've been doing reoot chakra meditation for a while now, trying my best to open it. But i've never felt something like this. What does this mean?

Heat and tingling are common energy sensations, they're just an indication of localized attention/energy/blood flow. You can move your awareness through your whole body using intention, that's a big part of what qigong is. Maybe find something to read or watch about qigong/energy work, tai chi, chakra meditations, breath work, etc.

^^this^^

Seems like you can stimulate your energy body..
Try to do the same with other chakras as well.If you feel nothing,persist.

If your method works with one chakra,can work with all of them.
You're on the right track

If it isn't too personal ... why are you doing root chakra meditation?

Does this happen daily?

Also if you want to open it,use your method,and try to produce somekind of ''movement''.

Tha means to locate the area you wont to work with,(the root chakra),and start to move your awareness up down,left right,clockwise back and forth etc.

If you do it right,the chakra will open and you'll release a portion of the kundalini..

If you feel your root energy pulsating in you day to day life just by directing your attention to that spot, you have a bit to much energy in it.
This pulsing came to me in regard of the kundalini. I would advice you either direkt the energy up your back to the crown and through the front back to the root to establish a circuit, direct the energy from root direkt to the crown through the body and or from the crown left and right along your skull in front of your ears toyour shoulders to your thumbs littlefinger armpits litte toe big toe up again to the root. The electric current you may feel with the second.. hold it a while. Both exercises are meant to start the kundallini. Whiyh is just intelligent energy which moves through your body opening channels and several side vortexes.
More information you can find in for example The plejadian workbooks from Amorah Quan Yin. There you see the channels.

So short. I believe you have a bit much energy in your root, which indicates that you could start the kun. process.
