Brief Answer:
Can be muscle sprain or spasm.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the butt that you have can be due to a muscle sprain or a spasm. Rest and hot compress can help. You can apply a local analgesic also for relief.
In case the pain is acute and persistent then do consult a physician and get oral muscle relaxants prescribed for relief.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
