Rocky,
I discovered this trick for sciatic pain relief you might want to try. I got one of the dog's "Kong" balls (super hard rubber balls). Lay on the floor or sit in a recliner and put it on the muscles around the pointy bone in your ass. Move it around with your weight on it massaging the tight sore muscles. You will know you are on target by how sore it feels.
It is relaxing the muscles and releasing the tension. It hurts good if you know what I mean. It will cut your recovery time down and you should find some relief pretty quick. I works for me and I have had some pretty bad bouts with that stuff.
Give it a try and let me know if it helps.
Best wishes.
