A member asked:
What is wrong with me if i have a tightness/numbness in the upper buttock/kidney area. it came out of nowhere.

Could be muscular.: On first impression, that sounds like it could be muscular, perhaps from the erector spinae muscle which courses through that area. Other possibilities exist, but that would be a first thought.
