Hi, thank you for the question. There are some simple things that you can do to try and help. First of all, try to avoid sitting on hard surfaces for long periods of time - some women will even try sitting on an inflatable ring to avoid any direct pressure on the end of the tail bone. A heating pad or a warm soak in the tub can provide some relief. Recommended amounts of pain relievers can give short periods of relief. A healthy exercise routine or gentle stretching can help sore pelvic muscl...more
