Brief Answer:
Can be muscular pain.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

The pain in buttocks and back of thighs after moving heavy objects is likely to be a stress related muscular pain. Mild pain killers with oral muscle relaxants, hot compress, local analgesic gel and calcium and magnesium supplements can help in an early improvement.

Do consult an orthopedician for proper examination and necessary prescriptions.

I hope this answers your query. Wishing you good health.
