I had back surgery and ever since I have had severe pain in my buttocks, to the point of crying. It is a burning pain and I too have trouble sitting. Any suggestions would be helpful

@schony1087 Your back and hips are tied together by fascia, and when one gets overly tight it will affect the other. Surgery also creates fascial scar tissue that will tie into everything making it tighter. Myofascial release can help that with a certified MFR therapist. Here is some related information.

Here is a link that explains some of the issues that happen when the pelvis is tweaked and how physical therapy can help. https://trainingandrehabilitation.com/identify-treat-lumbar-plexus-compression-syndrome-lpcs/

Myofascial release might be able to help and it is mentioned in the article about lumbar plexus compression syndrome.

Here is our discussion on MFR.

I have the same burning in my buttocks, sever burning in my torso. Seeing a neurologist, taking Naltrexone gradually increased from 1 mg to 5 mg. No change. I ice pack all the time. I think i could have Pudendal nerve compression. I have a lot of the symptoms. I am supposed to see a gyn who specialies i pelvic floor pain
