Thanks for writing in.
For tail bone pain, get an Xray done after consulting with Orthopedician. Based on xray findings your doctor might suggest you to use coccyx pillow regularly to alleviate pain.
If your back pain has increased following the recent injury, then better to get proper consultation and follow your doctor's advice. Avoid sitting for long time.
Get well soon
