Hello, Thanks for your query. Pain occuring around the tail bone area (coccyx) is termed as coccydynia. Coccydynia is felt as a localized pain and will generally feel worse when sitting or with any activity that puts pressure on the bottom area of the spine. * Sitz baths (which involves soaking hips and buttocks in warm water), which helps in providing pain relief * Lean forward while sitting down * Sit on a doughnut-shaped pillow or wedge (V-shaped) cushion * Apply heat or ice to the affected area If no response is found with analgesic medications, then local corticosteroid injections are given to give a substantially long term pain relief, which may last from few weeks to months. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
