Diagnosed with fracture coccyx 2weeks ago.plz advice when will i sit without pain? when could i safely drive my car? thanks

4-6 weeks: Unfortunately, these fractures are quite painful and heal slowly. I suggest the use of a rubber ring when sitting and consult your PCP for pain relief. If not allergic, I recommend Advil or Aleve (naproxen) as directed.
