A member asked:
I have a really painful tailbone at the moment and it all started yesterday, im sure i didn't fall or hitting it. can you please recomend a remedy?

Donut cushion: Most of the time these resolve with time but they can be painful to sit on. Ice packs may help and using a doughnut cushion can help decompress the spot you are sitting on while giving it a chance to heal.
