Whenever I squat down whether it be front or back, usually its front, I feel a pain in the very bottom range of the squat motion in what I am almost positive to assume is my bone directly underneath my right glute. I also feel it whenever I sit down on a chair and most of the time, I can't have my legs at a 90 degree angle so to compensate, I must sit back and extend my legs and thus, create a horrible posture. Ive foam rolled, stretched, and tried to activate them as much as I can to no avail and it still hurts in the bottom motion. Im not sure whats wrong but again, I'm almost positive that my bone is the problem.

One thing I've noticed is that, ever since I stopped eating anything dairy a year back, I've had three bone problems: one in left groin, right groin, and now this. The lack of calcium may have taken a toll on me but maybe its the joint and not the bone.

Any ideas as to what I can do about it? I'm not going to visit a damn doctor either because all they're going to say is, "rest and don't workout"

Well, why not eat some dairy again? If it was fine before, try that. But I have no clue what your injury is.

Sounds like the piriformis muscle is tight. Make sure to learn how to massage it with a tennis ball and stretch it gradually on a daily basis.

I had the same thing and it requires lots of massage and stretching to correct it.

ya man ive done a piriformis stretch and that eleviated lots of pain, but its still there.

whenever i press the spot where it hurts, its always the bone so ill still look into that
