Donut cushion

Hi, I'm new to the forums. Does anyone know if donut cushions help coccyx pain?

I have this type of coccyx cushion that I use particularly when driving. It was suggested to my by an occupational therapist after I was diagnosed with bulging discs at the base of my spine.

Hi I got one of these cushions as I work from home using a computer. I've found it really helps my back when I've had to sit for a while. I didn't find it so helpful sitting on the settee at night. I hope this helps.
