I'm going to respectfully disagree with the fuss part. When one starts riding again, or start riding with a new bicycle, I think you should be fussing with saddle positioning every few days.

Adjust only one thing at a time, mark stuff (with masking or scotch tape) when you make changes, and give every change time (at least a day or two, if not more) to see whether you really like it or not, but yes, futz and fuss. It takes time, weeks or months, to figure out correct positioning after not being on a bicycle for years.

Futzing won't make the pain go away, but it will allow you narrow down your choices of what positions you like or don't like.

Also, it is possible to have a saddle that is simply too narrow. Likewise it is possible to have a saddle that is too wide. If the pain stays the same or gets worse after weeks of riding, regardless of any change in position, you very well may have a saddle that doesn't work for you.
