Members rallied around the frustrating experience of dealing with dull buttock and tailbone pain that makes sitting and walking difficult, with many sharing that they know exactly how that feels. Several members offered practical tips including circular massage on the buttocks, donut-shaped cushions, Amazon pillows to relieve tailbone pressure, and consulting a physical therapist or pain management doctor. A recurring theme was the challenge of staying mobile despite worsening symptoms, with members finding comfort in small motivators like pets, adjustable beds, and the hope that better treatments will emerge for future generations.

Do you have a I call it doughnut pillow ots a circle ⭕ at bath and body works takes off the pressure for some people.

Sounds like sciatic nerve inflammation.Multiple therapies available.
A physical therapist can fix that.

. I learned years ago how I could lay on my stomach & either get a friend or I can massage in a circular motion on each buttock .

I have a dull ache in my tailbone all of the time. I have a desk job so as you can imagine, it’s rough by 4pm. I find lying in bed the most comfortable. I have an adjustable sleep number so even sitting there is more comfortable than anywhere else. I was diagnosed in 2018 but thanks to HORRIBLE rheum, I am just now getting intervention and attention.
