Where is the problem?

Gluteal or Buttock pain can be triggered by many causes such as[1]:

  • Radicular pain from Lumbar spine origin
  • Sciatic nerve entrapement
  • Obturator internus/gemellus syndrome
  • Piriformis Syndrome
  • Quadratus femoris/ischiofemoral pathology
  • Problems at the hamstrings
  • Glutealmuscles disorders

The complicated anatomy of the SIJ, the Lumbar spine and the buttock area makes the differential diagnosis of pain and dysfunction a challenge. MRI findings are not consistent with the LBP history and symptoms[2].
