I had a similar problem with my tail bone. I ended up sewing a type of pillow case that had a "U" shape spot cut out at the back where my tailbone would be. I had the pillow case filled with a stiffer type of foam so my tailbone was not pressed. Now, sure how crafty you are, but if you are feeling it all the way down your back, and cannot sew or know of anyone who can sew, I would try to fold a two towels so that you have one on each side of your spine and not on it. You could even use two blankets. Just fold so they give cusion on your ribs on each side of the spine. Then your spine won't press against the back of your chair. You can drape the towels/blanket over the back of your chair.

It's so bony and my lower spine has bruising on each vertebrae. Is there any special padding or anything that would cushion or protect that area? I use a manual chair and obviously don't have the muscles to sit up straight. I don't have the money or insurance to get a custom back. I'm also in my chair 12+ hours/ day Thanks Todd C6 inc
