Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The pain in the coccyx that you have described can be related to coccydynia. You need to do hot sitz bath to decrease the inflammation in those joints.Do hot fomentation over sacrum. It will take weeks to months to subside.

Use ring cushion and take sitz bath [sitting in lukewarm water for 10 min]
Take analgesic like nucoxia 90 once daily along with tab methylcobalamine 1500 mcg once daily.
If not relieved with all these methods then local injection may be required. You can take this consulting your doctor.
Clinically spinal origin of pain needs to be ruled out, if required MRI spine can be done.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
