Hello, It looks from your details that you are having coccydynia. Such type of pain can be there due to long sitting, excessive jerks, spine disorders like disc prolapse or due to hemorrhoids and even with straining due to constipation. At present I shall advise you to do warm fomentation by sitting in warm water in a bath tub for 2-3 times a day. Avoid sitting for more than 5-10 minutes. Try to avoid sitting at present instead you may lie down or do work in standing position. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
