How To Treat A Bruised Tailbone After Falling In Ice?

I fell Ice skating over 2 weeks ago. I feels like I bruised my tail bone, but the pain wasnt that bad. This morning I woke up and could hardly walk. Every step i take causes pain. How do I treat something like this and why is it more painful now that when I first injured it?
