Pulled lower back and hip muscle

Piriformis syndrome. Look it up on YouTube.

Do pigeon pose stretches, strengthen butt and hamstring, lacrosse ball to the muscle, and get stronger in the abs.

It's a muscle that goes over the sciatic nerve and if inflamed, it will push on it causing pseudosciatica

Deadlifts helped the most for me

Try using a TENS unit also with the exercises. It won't heal it, but it will dull the pain so you can get more mobility and not strain something else down the line.

Would yours completely go away? Thats what is weird about this.

That's a tough question. The one I had most recently ended up being fully herniated, so I had to get surgery (so no, that one was NEVER going to go away). But what I'm realizing now is that in the past several years, anytime I thought I had "tweaked" my left lower back/upper butt, it really was very likely to have been a protruding disc. I'd go easy on it for a week or so and it would fully ameliorate. I think it's possible that you have discs that protrude from time to time (most everyone does), but hard to say if it's applicable to you. "Referred pain" really is a confusing motherfricker, though. I was actively surprised when my disc was finally diagnosed, because the pain in my mind's eye was very far from my spine. Good luck with this shite.

I did a round of those strectches today, and I could feel that muscle in my butt. Ill keep it up.
