Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you are suffering from coccyxdynia. Its treatment is hot sits bath morning and evening. Analgesics (diclofenac ) can be taken for pain relief. You should sit on soft things, avoid hard objects for sitting .You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care
