Need a better butt cushion

Like many of us, I started experiencing ****yx pain after losing a significant amount of weight. I got a random ****yx pillow from Amazon and it was okay. Things improved with time.

Then I had my lower body lift in June 2017 and was pretty sedentary until the end of that year due to the rest of my reconstructive surgeries and healing. Since June, my butt has been hurting a lot again.

While I'm no longer sedentary, I do spend a lot of time sitting due to being a student (and all of my classes are online, so I don't even need to walk between classes, etc.). I assume the pain will improve as I rebuild musculature and such but, right now... argh.

I bought a Purple seat cushion some months ago since my initial ****yx pillow was too firm and caused more pain. The Purple seat cushion has been okay, but I'm really get tired of this constant pain.

Do any of you have a seat cushion/butt pillow that you love and recommend?

I called my friend who fell on the ice and hurt her ****yx after I read your post. She purchased the Kabooti Comfort Ring from Bed Bath and Beyond and really likes it. I read the reviews and they were pretty good, hope this helps.

I spend 8 hours a day on my yoga ball while I work. Love it, and I can exercise with it too:-)

I should have mentioned - but part of my "issue" is that I have no desk, so I sit in a chair in my living room and use my laptop on a lap desk. This set up is pretty non-negotiable, sadly. Otherwise I'd totally be spending my days in an Aeron chair and living the high life :D
