Back and buttock pain after prolonged sitting

Sitting time, posture, and the movements that ease or worsen the pain are reviewed together.

Pain when bending or extending the back

The painful direction of movement helps focus the back and neurological examination.

Numbness that travels from the buttock into the leg

The path of numbness and any accompanying weakness help guide the nerve assessment.

Deep pelvic discomfort while walking or climbing stairs

Hip, pelvic, and lower-back movement are compared to locate the main source of discomfort.
