Piriformis or Hip: If the pain is worse with long periods of sitting it could be sacroiliac joint inflammation. If the pain is worse with deep pressure over the middle of the buttock, especially when you pigeon-toe your feet - piriformis muscle spasm, or posterior labral tear in the hip (cartilage in the hip joint socket), but this one is least likely.
