(Dead Butt Syndrome) If your hip joint hurts when you sleep on your side… You should suspect ‘this disease.’

Dead buttock syndrome (also known as gluteal tendinopathy), a condition that affects the hip joint, destroys or weakens tendon tissue, often causing hip pain. According to the American health and medical media outlet MedicalXpress, dead buttock syndrome afflicts runners, dancers, skiers, and anyone who sits all day. Postmenopausal women are also prone to the condition.

 

According to the Cleveland Clinic, dead buttock syndrome occurs when some of the gluteal muscles (gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus) in the buttocks become weak. It can occur when excessive stress is placed on the tendons during physical activity or when an accident causes them to become compressed. It can also occur due to inactivity or a sedentary lifestyle, which reduces the use of the tendons. Weight gain can also cause this condition by placing excessive stress on the tendons.

Initially, it causes pain in the lower back and muscles, and if the condition persists, it can significantly reduce quality of life. Symptoms typically present as moderate hip pain. Pain is aggravated when climbing stairs or slopes, lying on your side or sleeping on your side, sitting for long periods of time, or standing on one leg. You may also experience hip pain upon getting out of bed each morning. If you experience these symptoms, you should consider dead buttock syndrome. Diagnostic tests such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or ultrasound may be necessary.

 

Correct hunched posture and change your sitting position frequently… Stretching, yoga, and weightlifting are good for prevention.

 

If left untreated, dead buttock syndrome can lead to signs of aging, such as chronic pain in the lower body, appearing much earlier. Experiencing chronic pain every night can lead to sleep deprivation, extreme fatigue, and irritability. Fortunately, with a little care, you can prevent this condition or alleviate its symptoms.

 

According to the Cleveland Clinic, repetitive activities that focus on the hips should be avoided. If you experience hip pain during exercise, such as running or hiking, you should definitely take a break. Weight lifting, a muscle-strengthening exercise, is recommended to strengthen the hips and prevent this condition in the long term. Stretching and yoga are also good for keeping the lower body flexible. "Posture is paramount," says Dr. Robert Trasolini, an orthopedic surgeon. "Vary your sitting position frequently throughout the day, both at work and during breaks." He cautions, "Sitting with your back hunched or slouched at your desk puts a lot of stress on your lower back and hip muscles."

 

If you've already started experiencing symptoms of dead buttock syndrome, you should get up and move around every 30 minutes at work or at home to slow or stop the symptoms. It's recommended to get up and stretch every hour or so, and take a short walk of about 3 to 5 minutes. This can help alleviate symptoms. It's also recommended to seek professional help with manual therapy, massage, extracorporeal shock wave therapy, and appropriate exercise prescriptions.
