Consider a user of id 23 and username "foo". The easiest is to rewrite /register/23/foo to /register/profile.php?user_id=23 as such:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/register/([0-9]+)/([^/]+)/$ /register/profile.php?user_id=$1 [L,R]
But if you can change profile.php to rely on $_GET['username'] rather than $_GET['user_id'], you can rewrite /register/foo to /register/profile.php?username=foo. Use this rule:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/register/([^/]+)/$ /register/profile.php?username=$1 [L,R]

You have to enable mod_rewrite. The internet is full of example an tutorials for that.
