What Causes Severe Pain In Tailbone Despite Taking Naproxen?

3 days ago I started having soreness around my tail bone area, it hurt to sit but not horribly. The pain has been getting worse to the point I can barely sleep. I went to the doctors today and they re waiting for blood results and to look over xrays. I can t take the pain. It s in my lower back, tail bone area and I noticed a lump on the inside of my cheeks about a half an hour ag . I was prescribed Naproxen and a doughnut cushion. The doughnut cushion helps a tremendous amount with sitting, laying hurts very badly. Please give me ideas on what this is and what I can do to help!!
