Find a chiropractor. Or a good massage.

Pain killers? OMG! It's a bad doctor who does not look to treat the underlying problem. It could be a problem with the coccyx or the soft tissue surrounding it. See another doctor, ask for x-rays (in case cracked/hairline fracture). If x-rays show nothing, request a referral to a physio.
It sounds as if the problem cannot be sorted out by a chiropractor or a 'massage'. In fact, it could make the problem far worse.

Also when she sleeps on her back, a pillow to prop up the knees in a semi-bent position will help decrease the "pressure" on the lower back.

1. Do NOT go to a Chiropractor
2. Do NOT get massage.
go to a real and decent doctor who is familiar with musculo-skeletal issues.
It could well be inflammation which causes muscular spasm (i.e. the sharp pain) which causes more localised inflammation which causes more muscular spasms, which causes....it is a feedback loop really,
Anti-inflammatory medication (Voltarin aint bad if your guts aren’t too sensitive) in conjunction with a muscle relaxant (non-prescription drugs may not be good enough – plus most of the good stuff here is addictive hence prescription medication).
Yeah, rubs are good, but consider Voltarin in gel form for this.
But go to a real doc!
