Lie down and spread your hips ask some one to apply an ice cube on the tail bone area.

Tail bone pain can only be reduced through medicines, either can take Naproxen or Ibrufen at home twice a day for 3 days, if no improvement need to consult ortho doc for more medic8bes.
applying icepack will help relax the pain.

Tailbone pain requires specific release and mobilization.
Sometimes online consult with exercises would be enough. Using a donut pillow is a temporary solution. But could be done till you get relief from pain
