Problem in tail bone
I'm having a problem while sitting from September 2016. Actually I sat on a pointed object by mistake and then when I went to see a doctor then I had an xray and he told me that my tailbone has bent a little. So I need to avoid to sit and travel. I have joined office and I can't avoid to sit. So, can you help me with this by suggesting something.

If the pain is restricted to the tailbone area, then you can try a cushion. There are cushions available, with a hole in the middle. They are also called "Polo mint" cushions. If you use this then the tailbone will not be under pressure while sitting and you may get relief from the pain.
