I've burning pain on both sides of the tail bone while sitting.what is the reason for that?

Coccidynia: Inflammation over the tail bone can occur following trauma, and associated with a number of rheumatological conditions. Sometime this responds quite nicely to NSAID preparations. You could try OTC Aleve (naproxen).
