Not silly, I had no idea either. It's a little bowl-type thing you put over your toilet and fill with warm water and epsom salts or whatever the doctor recommends. Then you sit on it and soak the area for 10–20 minutes. Quite nice actually! This is the one I bought.
I used the peri bottle and the numbing spray a lot if I remember correctly. But seriously - the sitz bath - $9 from amazon - you fill the bag with the absolute hottest water you can physically stand, and put in some epsom salt (in the basin), and you just sit in it. When the water starts to get cold, you undo the valve a little, and new super hot water comes into the bowl. Its awesome. You can probably pick one up at CVS or something - they gave it to me at the hospital after my son was born. Probably charged my insurance $100 for it too. :)
My son was in the NICU for a few days, so I was walking around, but i didn't have anything with my tailbone, and I imagine that is where a lot of your pain is coming from as well.
Did they give you the numbing spray and the peri bottle? I think I used the peri bottle for a really long time. I would fill that up with really hot water before I would have to "go" and then I would use that, and just pat dry.
Not sure what I did about work tho... I feel like I brought an extra peri bottle in to work. In fact, I'm pretty sure I did.
It took longer to heal internally than externally, so when I say 5 months, that was just for all the internal areas to be at 100%. And at the end it was more like having a scrape inside me that was slowly healing, it wasn't intense pain. Just made intimate times uncomfortable, which I credit my husband a lot for not pressuring me at all.
Better yet, a sitz bath
Fill it up with warm water and epsom salt, put in toilet (raise the seat first), and sit.
I ordered these sitz materials from amazon, in case others are still looking:
