GET UP AND MOVE!
I am serious when I suggest it.
Sitting is not good for your sitz bones- or your health.
There are standing desks and "benches" that will alleviate your derrier being on a firm surface supporting your upper body weight.
If you don't do any strength training that would help as well as the "get up and move". We do yoga, short walk, stretch. 1-5 minutes for every 30 minutes of sitting will be very helpful.
Good Luck.

@annshrader I try moving what I can when I can , I was doing wash at I could in water therapy up until a month ago when I had the stimulator put in. With water above the belly button when walking I couldn’t walk backwards or sideways because of pressure on the nerves, sometimes getting in the deep end with a noodle under my arms the nerves would start stinging all over my legs going to my testicles as well. If I done pelvic tilts in the water my back pops with every movement. They stopped my therapy but I continued under a maintenance program and just walk and do what stretches I can and for $3 it gets me out of the house and a few people to talk to. When setting in church I had to start setting in the entry way where it was a concrete floor because the vibration of the bass triggered the nerves in my leg. Summer time I could walk on the grass not my drive way, having 2 acres I would get my grabbers and walk the yard picking up sticks . I’m going to be down possibly a couple more months depending on the stimulator being redone and I’m needing a surgery on the sphincter above my stomach, it’s not closing right and allowing content to come back up , making it to where I can’t use my cpap because I choke
