    So after 9 years trucking with no issue, I now get bad pain in that delicate area. Prostate and nearby. I do have slightly enlarged prostate. Doc says normal for age. No issue just sitting but once on the move, vibration, bumps, shaking, etc the pain comes on. Been using a coushin made for this, helps but it's too soft and flattens out or just uncomfortable on legs or tailbone. Any of you got a good one that actually works great for your prostate issues or I imagine the same if pelvic floor pain, etc. I need to get something that works. I am seriously looking at getting out of driving all together if I can't solve it. If you found a good one share. Most I see are for back and tailbone issues, I do not have back or tailbone issues so a coushin focused on that is likely not gonna work. There has to be at least a couple of you out there with the same issue that found a solution.

    I have no answers, but work that one out and you have a new job that will pay far better than trucking

    I've found an exceptional cushion. Not sure about prostate. It did take care of lack of circulation in my legs. It always took care of bumps, hard jarring from the truck/road. I could lower the seat all the way down. Have difficulty telling the difference. It is an extra large Purple. I know you've seen the Purple's in the truck stops. Only get the extra large. The smaller ones don't cover the sides of the seat. So those, you don't have that support from the sides. Results in you feeling like a weeble wobbling. I actually have three. Kept getting bigger. Found I should have gotten the extra large in the first place. It's thicker too. Takes those bumps better. I rarely saw the extra large in a truck stop. Probably have to go to Purple to buy it. It ain't cheap either.
    I am so impressed with these. I bought two Purple mattresses. Twin and Queen. Chose the 3. Best for me. Two grand a piece. Put one in the truck.
    I got the extra large Purple cushion in my car now. It's just too good. I'm retired now.
