A member asked:

Why does the region right above by butt hurt whenever i move from a sitting position?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Back pain: This is most likely musculoskeletal discomfort and could emanate from the spine itself or from muscle or ligament. Apparently the discomfort is positional occurring only on arising after sitting but not during other activities like bending, twisting, standing or walking. If you are still concerned, an orthopedic specialist is best qualified to evaluate and advise you.
