What Causes Buttock And Leg Pain On Prolonged Sitting?
When I sit for long periods of time, especially at work, I have a lot of pain that seems to radiate from my right buttock down the back of the leg. It hurts worse behind the knee, and is most painful around the top of my right ankle. I don t know which type of doctor I should see, or what may have caused this.

Hi, welcome to health care magic. After going through your query I think you are suffering from acute backache with nerve compression. The cause may be slip disc or lumber spondylosis. Definite diagnosis may be made by MRI lumbo sacral spine. You can see an orthopaedician. Hope your query get answered. Welcome to further query.
