Quadratus lumbrorum : Typically quadratus lumbrorum painful trigger points will cause lower back pain due to its posterior location at the back, attaching the lower ribs to the iliac crest. However, if there is involvement of the gluteal muscles and hip region, due to anatomic instabilities produced in the kinetic chain, especially while walking it is possible to have referred pain to the groin or thigh as described.
