Its a worsest location to face any fracture. Gender is another big issue, use coccydina seat avoid seating long, driving, put hot or cold fomentation, and if available go for PEMF therapy in local clinic if available to improve or accelerate healing.

Tailbone fracture full recovery may take 3 months to 6 months
You should use a coccyx cushion all the time to recover faster
Whenever you sit use a coccyx cushion
If however as the weeks go by the pain is same then you may require an intervention so if not visited an orthopaedic doctor please do so as soon as possible
