May be sacroiliac: Sorry you are suffering from this...There are several common causes of sciatica including sacroiliac joint irritation or a herniated disk. If your pain does not get better, if numbness affects the crotch, or if you have bowel or bladder difficulty, then you may need a surgical evaluation, otherwise your primary care provider or physiatrist +/- physical therapist can help with definitive treatment.

Back pain: Besides sciatica, pain in lower back where you can't get comfortable in any position could be a kidney stone. Sciatica pain typically radiates down the buttocks and leg where kidney stone pain usually radiates towards the groin. This could be helpful to narrow down the cause of your pain. See a doctor if the pain worsens or persists.

Back pain: The most common causes of pain in this area is inflammation of the sacroiliac joint. Also, an inflamed facet joint in the lumbar spine or the sacrospinous ligament can cause this pain. Kidney stones can be a source of pain too. Begin with anti-inflammatory medications and apply ice to the affected area. If the pain persists then see a medical doctor.
