Is it a sharp pain in your buttock?
Because you were doing some bending/standing/bending type movements, I wonder if you have sciatica? If you can....... * Lie on the floor close to a chair/sofa. * Move your buttocks towards the chair, so that your buttocks are almost touching the seat. * Bend your knees and rest your leg from the knee down, on the chair. Your body should now be in a "Z" position. If the pain eases, then you most probably have sciatic pain as this position removes the pressure on the spinal nerves. Here's a link that describes sciatic nerve pain: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sciatica PS. There are other conditions that will cause buttock pain, but sciatica is by far the most common reason.
