Does this sound natural in English?
Can I say "my butt was painful"?
I had to keep sitting on the tile floor for a long time for my friend's speech.
After his speech ended, my butt was painful.
Does this sound natural in English or if you could, kindly provide more appropriate expression here.
Best regards

It would sound better to say "it was painful to sit on my butt for so long", or "sitting on my butt for so long was painful".
Your butt doesn't feel painful.....YOU feel pain in your butt, and IT is painful.
Hope this helps : )

The word "butt" isn't a word you would use in all settings.
A more acceptable expression would be "I had a sore behind".
Hope this helps

"My butt was hurting" would be more natural.
