LOUTYTUO Seat Cushion Pillow,100% Memory Foam and Washable Cover,for Office Chair,Car Seat and Wheelchair,Tailbone & Sciatica & Back Pain Relief

I've been dealing with ischial bursitis for some time now. According to my doctor and physical therapist, if you're lucky and there's a repetitive motion that you can stop doing (like bike riding), then it still might take a month to resolve. I'm unlucky- I think mine started when I slammed down on the hard seat of a roller coaster (and no, there was no "bone bruise," just the bursitis on imaging), and since then I don't have any easily reversible habits to stop--I'm not particularly sedentary, and I haven't had any repetitive lower extremity motions or sports that I can avoid, but my pain was still been pretty constant for a few months despite PT, meds, injections, etc. According to the PT, it's because sitting on it, lying on it, moving it with walking (you know, the normal things I do just EXISTING) are aggravating it, and if it didn't get better I might be looking at a surgical bursectomy. PT recommended this type of cushion, but all the quality ones I initially found were about a hundred bucks; simple pillow types (non memory foam, poor construction) were cheaper but didn't make any more of a difference than just using a pillow off my bed. Then I found this one- it's pretty much the same design and construction as those expensive ones, for the price of one of those simpler pillowy types. It almost seemed too good to be true, but I ordered it. It is an absolute game changer. After only a couple of days of offloading the bursa at work, the dinner table, in the car, etc (it's lightweight and has a carry strap, so it's easy to take wherever I am), I'm essentially pain free in the bursa this morning. I was still sore lying on it last night in bed (due to the design of the cushion, you really can't put it under you to sleep without arching your back significantly), but even that was a lot better, and for the first time I've got some hope that I can kick this thing (current plan is to use it for at least a couple of weeks of being pain-free, and then to still use it on long car rides, etc as a prevention) without surgery. I've only had it a few days, so take any assessment of durability with a grain of salt, but it seems to have high quality materials and construction, the design is almost identical to the expensive one, and the breathable/washable cover and memory foam haven't given me any trouble with sweating, etc despite using it on leather seats on hot days. And of course, it seems to be working, and quickly. I did notice, as other reviewers have, that initially I was more sore in my rear. Immediately, this seemed to be me just trying to find the best place to sit on the cushion for my body type so that my ischium was in the "donut" rather than on the firm-when-compressed memory foam. Once I found that sweet spot, and the cushion started breaking in, that bursal pain pretty much went away, but I did notice more of a generalized soreness in the surrounding muscles. I attribute this to the fact that generally the pressure points of your ischial tuberosities and their overlying structures bear the weight of you sitting (they aren't called "sit bones" for nothing), and so when you offload them, the surrounding tissues of your rear end bear the brunt of your weight, when they aren't used to doing so. That said, the discomfort paled in comparison to what the bursitis felt like, and went away pretty quickly. This is a niche product that you probably didn't just stumble upon--if you found it and are reading this, you probably did so after doing research for something that's ailing you. In my case, this thing was a magic bullet at a fraction of the cost of some of the other stuff out there, with seemingly all of the benefits. I'll update things if they change, but as of now, I'm inclined to say that your search ends here. Buy the thing.

After a few months of unbearable pain on my sit bones / ischial tuberosity area, I was diagnosed with this issue. I completed PT and found this cushion with the 2 cut out areas that align perfectly to take pressure off the bones, and this also allows the surrounding areas to stretch, support and help heal the pressure. After 2 weeks of use, I felt relief sitting and still feeling great. I use it on my work chair daily. Quality foam, removable cover to wash.

Better than nearly everything I've tried. I lack a lot of natural padding on my butt and need a cushion for sitting - my sits bones especially hurt on a hard surface, so I appreciate the cutouts. This is the best cushion I've tried in terms of relieving pressure for long periods of time.

I have been struggling with a hamstring tear where it connects to my bum. After sitting for a short period, the pain kicks in and I have to stand up to alleviate it. This cushion is a lifesaver! The hole is located right where the pain starts. I've been sitting all morning and have not felt any discomfort. Plus it is a comfortable cushion as well. I know this will help me in my recovery as well.

I started having what i assume is ischial bursitis truly so painful to sit an nothing was working to help it heal , so i did my research n ordered this cushion ,its day teo since it arrived an i can already feel it working to helping it heal, as i csn now sit and have such horrific pain doing so, all i can say is this is really helping me finally get relief , if you suffer from this you should own this cushion

Pros: - Thick memory foam is soft and comfortable. - Carrying strap makes it easy to take with me. - Washable cover. Cons: -The holes are too small to fit a variety of body sizes. Some reviewers measured and believe the holes are spaced to fit an average sized male. I'm constantly shifting around to find a comfortable position on this cushion without success. -This cushion is significantly higher in the back than the front. This excessive slope isn't comfortable and creates an extreme drop-off under the thighs. Overall: I prefer the Ayilo Socket Seat for my problem. But, this was among the better cushions I tried for relief. The ergonomics are questionable but the soft foam is comfortable. Maybe it will work for you.

If you have ischial bursitis and it hurts to sit down in anything hard this is the cushion for you. I even use it in the car. It is great that the front edge is tapered, it keeps pressure off the legs besides your back/bottom side. It is made great. Easy to carry with the soft handle. I take it everywhere. I have more than one. I sit on one at my table when eating.

Very comfortable
