A local examination is recommended here. From what you are telling it could be sacrococcygeal (tail bone joint) dislocation due to trauma. Or inflammation over there due to ligament sprain. Need to get radiographs of coccyx in different views.
Next Steps
If diagnosed, treatment would range from initial Ice packs and analgesics to closed reduction of the dislocation if any.
Health Tips
You can use a donut pillow while sitting and can also lean forward while sitting to offload coccyx from the surface.
