Broken Tail

[tillytime]

I've injured my tail bone (coccyx) falling off and am now finding it really painful to ride, or even just to sit down.

I know from experience it can take months to start ot feel better.

Anyone got any suggestions on how I can improve comfort when hacking?

I did this years ago snowboarding, and to be honest, I couldn't ride for about six weeks!!!
You could try a thick wool seat saver, might cushion it a bit!!
Ouch

Beanbag?

It depends if its cracked or brused.I cracked mine and have to say it was so painfull did not even think about getting back on for a while, was bad enough just to sit on a chair let alone a horse !! So only advise I would give is give yourself time to heal the last thing you want to do is make it worse. Hope it gets better soon.

Ditto. Though it is very awkward having to take it to sit on at the cinema. I did get a good view of the screen though xx
