Extreme tailbone pain

So I'm wanting to get back into exercising regularly. But for the last 1 1/2 months Ive been having extreme tailbone pain. It started after a long road trip to Seattle and back( from southern Oregon). I went to the Dr about 2 weeks ago...And after "feeling" my tailbone for like 2 seconds he said it was "inflamed"....Well...the anti inflammatory he prescribed makes me too sick (I struggle with chronic nausea) to take(plus it didnt even help)....It's gotten worse...I cannot find anything online about "inflamed" tailbones,lol....It is beyond painful to sit (even tilted on one hip or the other), get up from a sitting/laying position, rolling over in bed....or laying on my back in bed...Anyone here have anything like this happen before??? What can I do to alleviate this?? Any advice will be very much appreciated :wink:
