What Causes Swollen Buttocks When Suffering From Lower Backache?
In the last few months I have noticed that the upper part of my right buttock is significantly larger than my left side. I have chronic lower back pain, particularly after sitting or being on feet for a bit. I am about 100 lbs overweight. My doctor looked at it in the course of another but didn t act on it. Now swelling is larger than before. Was wondering what type of doctor I should see and what could be causing it.

What Causes Swollen Buttocks When Suffering From Lower Backache?
Hi, You haven t mentioned, if there is any hard or soft swelling or simply increase in size. Get xray of lumbosacral spine done in AP and Lateral view and send me the report. For back pain, you can take aceclofenac + thiocochicoside combination three times a day by prescription of your family doctor. You can also consult orthopaedic surgeon. I hope it helps. Thanks. Dr.Singh.
