Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
Tail bone removal pain can be very severe and agonizing. I would advice you to take Sitz bath, i mean to sit in a warm water filled tub twice a day to heat tail bone area. Also avoid sitting on hard surface or any surface for long hours. You can use special ring shape cushion if you want. Steroid injection in your tail bone is also helpful if symptoms are not improved after these measures.
I find this answer helpful
