that would depend on the location of the herniated disk. if it was in lumbar area then this would be possible. if the disk was in your neck then. no. in my situation i have a herniated disk that is touching my sciatic nerve which is causing severe lower back pain that radiates down my buttocks leg and foot. the only relief i have is sitting down. standing walking or laying flat causes the disc to push against the sciatic nerve and sitting releases the pressure. so yes a herniated disc can radiate down the leg and butt.
does a herniated disk cause numbness in the upper buttocks area. i have had this pain and numbness for about 2 years and standing and overworking makes it severly worse
