What Causes Pain In The Buttocks Radiating Towards The Legs Post Injury?
Last night I fell straight down into a siting position with force to bottom of rear radiating down my legs into my feet. Now when I get up I have excruciating pain especially at bottom of my rear and down my legs finding it immensely difficult to move.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be a neuropathic pain due to nerve entrapment or nerve compression. It is quite common after a trauma and is difficult to cure. As of now, you can take analgesics, like Gabapentin and Tramadol for symptomatic relief. If the pain persists, then you have to consult a physician or a pain specialist and get evaluated.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
