Back, hip, and glute pain
I've been having hip pain that flow down till the thigh which has extended to my glutes and groin too
The lower back and upper back hurts too now but the pain is only in one side
I've already gotten physiotherapy done and it was okay for a while
I did some yoga for hips and the pain increased a lot
The glutes also hurt a lot if I sit for a long time in one position
Are there any exercises I can do to fix this? Cause I've heard weak glutes can cause this kinda pain
Or is it a more serious problem?

Hi sir according to your post itseems piriformis dysfunction....because of that you will feel pulling pain...and it can be caused due to your pelvic shift also....it is a muscular issue only nothing to worry....
Next Steps
Its better to visit any physio for consultation they will assess your condition and examine if you have any pelvic shift....and accordingly they will treat

Dont do yoga if pain persists...dont sit for too long it may will increase the pain...check lying on tummy if the pain reduce or not if not keep 2 pillows under your chest and lye down in same position...here the pulling pain what ever is reduced and localized pain will be present....check this if pain still persists pls do visit

Hello, in my view its related neurology problem, basically you have to take proper rest and minimal physical activities . Repeat your physio again for few more days with electrotherapy and if pain is severe take some analgesics.
Next Steps
Take one MRI Scan of Pelvis and hip along with lumbo sacral spinal cuts
Health Tips
Bed rest with back support
Hot water application
Pain gel application
Physiotherapist consultation and Neurologist opinion after MRI Scan.
