Gluteus medius tendonitis, also known as Gluteal amnesia or colloquially as Dead Butt syndrome is a lifestyle disease that affects the gluteus maximus muscle characterized by a lack of muscle tone and strength in the buttocks, typically from excess sitting.
The ischial bursa is a synovial bursa located between gluteus maximus muscle and ischial tuberosity. [4] When in a seated position, the ischial bursa is put under the highest amount of pressure, which is most significant against a hard surface. [3] Friction from exercise can lead to inflammation of the ischial bursa, known as bursitis. [1]
Patients often face challenges when trying to find accurate diagnosis and surgical treatment for deep gluteal syndrome. Pathologies of the pelvic nerves have historically rarely been seriously explored clinically, [ 35 ] even though hundreds of thousands of people with sciatica each year have absent lumbar disc herniation on MRI .

Tendinopathy is a type of tendon disorder that results in pain, swelling, and impaired function. [2] The pain is typically worse with movement. [2] It most commonly occurs around the shoulder (rotator cuff tendinitis, biceps tendinitis), elbow (tennis elbow, golfer's elbow), wrist, hip, knee (jumper's knee, popliteus tendinopathy), or ankle (Achilles tendinitis).
It is caused by weakness or ineffective action of the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus muscles. Gandbhir and Rayi point out that the biomechanical action involved comprises a class 3 lever , where the lower limb's weight is the load, the hip joint is the fulcrum, and the lateral glutei, which attach to the antero-lateral surface of the ...
Medical treatment of the condition requires determination of the underlying pathology and tailoring therapy to the cause. The examiner may check muscle-tendon length and strength, perform joint mobility testing, and palpate the affected hip over the greater trochanter for lateral symptoms during an activity such as walking.

Pressing on an affected muscle can often refer pain. Clusters of trigger points are not uncommon in some of the larger muscles, such as the gluteus group (gluteus maximus, gluteus medius, and gluteus minimus). Often there is a heat differential in the local area of a trigger point. [citation needed]
