The most likely reason for any pain that extends from the buttocks down to the foot is sciatica, or sciatic neuritis, especially if the pain is specifically located toward the back of the leg.

The sciatic nerve begins in the low back, passes through the buttocks and travels all the way down to the great toe. Any irritation or pressure anywhere along the course of the nerve will give rise to pain. I suspect that you have some compression or irritation at or near the lower lumbar spine or sacroiliac joints of the pelvis.

It probably would be helpful for you to consult with an orthopedic doctor or a chiropractor to determine the exact cause and best route of treatment for your problem.
