Sometimes referred to as deep buttock pain, other causes of this type of pain include spine problems (including herniated discs and spinal stenosis), sciatica, and hip bursitis. The diagnosis of piriformis syndrome is often given when all of these diagnoses are eliminated as possible causes of pain.
Even though hip pain, buttock pain and groin pain can be related and are grouped together in this article, they are usually from different causes. Pain in the buttock / gluteal area is usually due to problems of the pelvis, sacrum, low back and or muscles of the buttock area (gluteal and other muscles). The cause can also be from other body parts, such as the knees, ankles or feet.
