I get kind of a bruised feeling if I sit in my hard wooden kitchen chair for a day. You know, sometimes you're cooking and doing other stuff in the kitchen, and sitting down a lot, maybe using the computer in between tending the stove. I spend quite a few days like that every month, and my tail bone does start to be achy. My tail bone hurts right now for that reason.

I think if you've been going through for a year, you are reinjuring it regularly through something you do. If it's not the bike saddle, I'd try to really observe your time habits and try to narrow down what it might be. (i.e., my low back gets stiff and painful if I spend too much time on the couch.)

I hope it's nothing more serious than that.
