This pain is called coccydynia. I have following suggestions for you.
1. avoid sitting on hard surface. Cushion of ring shape can be used.
2. Sit in gentle warm water for half hour twice daily.
3.Take brufen or diclofenenc for pain relief.
4.Avoid constipation.
5. If pain persist you can get a steroid injection,it can give you permanent relief.
6. Surgery is last option.
