Brief Answer:
Sciatica
Detailed Answer:
Hi there
Thanks for the query
It is possible you may be having sciatica due to pressing of the nerves in your spine due to possible disc bulge in your spine.
Sitting long hours, forward bending, lifting heavy objects can cause this. Nothing to do with wallet or sandals. No need to take any mineral.
Do back strengthenimg exercises that you can see on YouTube. Avoid sitting long hours. Avoid bending forwards and lifting weights.
Get an xray of the lumbar spins if the pain does not subside in 4 weeks.
I hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Actually it’s not spine and not buttocks but below the right buttocks on the upper thigh. Right side. Just where the buttocks ends and thigh starts.
I think it is muscular one.
I have put tiger balm. The pain is similar to the neck pains I get if I don’t sleep well.
My question is : how to avoid future recurring ?

Brief Answer:
Medication
Detailed Answer:
The back of upper thigh pain could be due to slip disc in most cases.
Take Tablet Myospas-Th 8mg twice a day after food. It can cause drowsiness so don't take it before driving. If you have numbness or pins and needless sensations take Tablet Pregabalin 75mg at night as well. Confine Myospas for one week and Pregabalin for 2 months.
