Is there a way to prevent pains in the buttocksthat arise from driving for long !

Is there a way to prevent pains in the buttocksthat arise from driving for long periods of time?

When I drive for distances greater than an hour, I tend to get a nasty pain in my right buttock. This has happened now with my past 3 cars, and have no idea how to alleviate it. If I move the seats or shift around in the seat, it's virtually no help. So does anyone have a suggestion on how to alleviate it? Is there some sort of pillow I should buy? Something I should do differently when I sit? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

The bulk of my travel is 3 hour trips back and forth to see family in another state. I will get out and move around to no avail. It almost feels as t though there is something poking my butt, like when you sleep on a lumpy mattress and there's springs poking you everywhere!

All I can suggest is pillows, like you thought...that sounds reasonable. Or take a break like another poster suggested. But other than that if moving around doesn't help it sounds like there isn't much you can do. Very weird...maybe you'll have to see a doctor in case you're sitting wrong!
