Ischial tuberosity/ bursitis (sit bone) pain
Bones, Joints & Muscles | Last Active: 4 days ago | Replies (17)Comment receiving replies
looking for a seat cushion that actually works for ischial tuberosity? None that I have tried seem to work at all. PT work helps a little and seated leg lifts with a tennis ball under the hamstrings helps. Gradually moving the tennis ball higher up just below the bone but not on it provides a good stretch for some relief. If I could find a good seat cushion that isolates and takes pressure off the sit bone I might improve, So far none really deliver. Has anyone found a seat cushion that really works that also has a cut out for the tailbone?

I had an awful pain under my sit bone and glute and use one of those cut out tail bone cushion for sciatica pain. I keep it in my car.
It made all the difference for me.
PT helped too but the pillow continues to be beneficial.

I use a “Purple” brand cushion. Recommend by my helicopter pilot, son (long flights on uncomfortable seats). Works well for me, but nothing is perfect.
