Slight pressure sore....need advice.

I developed a small sore up and to the right of my tailbone and am concerned about it. When I am in my chair there is hardly any to no pressure on it, but when I am in bed there is pressure on it. If I lay on my side will it go away and should I put anything on it like a bandage or neosporin on it at all? I developed this damn thing after being too long on the shower chair and have eliminated the problem. What else can I do? Thanks.
