Question Have any of you cycled on a cracked/bruised tailbone?

The other day I was testing out my new bike, and for some reason jumped off it via the tip of the seat, which did quite a number on my tailbone. I am still not sure if it's cracked or bruised, but I am sitting on a donut as we speak, and a few minutes ago I stood up and saw spots!

Has anyone else done this and continued cycling while it was healing? I really want to keep riding, but I am worried I will make it worse. But perhaps if I keep my weight forward it won't have an effect?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Well, I'll answer my own thread to say that I did a 35 km ride on my tailbone after having taken some painkillers, and I DON'T recommend it...I think I really aggravated it.
