PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – This can be a real pain in the backside…

Researchers in the medical industry say some aches and pains could be caused by something called "Dormant Butt Syndrome."

They found some knee pain is actually due to weakness in the glute muscles.

Other parts of the body can be impacted too, like the hips and back.

They recommend stretching your thighs and glutes to combat the syndrome.

It's especially important if your job requires you to sit all day.
