Last night i moved positions in bed and noticed a slight pain in my lower back and upper buttocks. right where a nurse would give you a shot. no i have not had any shots recently. rolled my finger around and found a small knot that is painful?

Even though it was only a trivial movement you made in bed, I would regard this as a muscle.strain with an element of spasm. I recommend cold applications 20 minutes at a time several times a day for 24-48 hours and then switch to warm compresses. You could take ibuprofen or naproxen if discomfort appears to be spreading.
