Summary
This study tests whether chairs with special foam materials and shapes can reduce tailbone pain and improve comfort for people with coccydynia. About 42 adults who sit at desks 5-6 hours daily will use the chairs for one week. Researchers will measure pressure distribution, pain levels, and quality of life to see if the design helps.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a simple, non-drug way to reduce tailbone pain for people who sit at desks for long hours.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 42 participants and a short one-week use period, so results may not apply to everyone or show lasting benefits.
