Chronic Coccyx (Tail Bone) Pain
I have chronic Coccyx (tail bone) pain since 4-5 months. Consulted multiple orthopaedists, but they prescribed medicines, which doesn't provide much relief. Then I took 2 weeks of Physiotherapy sessions with a Physiotherapist. PT helped me a lot as most of my chronic pain has gone. But then, the problem is not gone. The exercises help a bit.
I develop instant pain if I don't sit with U-shaped cushion seat, or even sitting on this seat for long hours develop pain. I can't drive for more than 15 minutes. Bike riding seems to be distant dream now.
Now, I am very confused, whom should I consult ? Ayurveda ? Homeopathic ? Or some orthopaedist who can give some out the way treatment different from what I have got in past ? Is there any permanent solution ?

In my experience coccyx can be relieved by simple means. Take a scooty tube , inflat it around 30-40 percent. Make and a cover over it . Whenever you are sitting use this scooty tube cushion. The space encircled by tube will be used for sitting
Next Steps
Can take online or offline consultation.
Health Tips
It can take two or two and half month . So no need to confuse.
