Piriformis Syndrome can be a source of persistent pain and discomfort, affecting your daily activities and overall well-being. At Physioveda Medical Center, we specialize in providing comprehensive and effective treatments for Piriformis Syndrome, helping you regain mobility and alleviate pain.
What is Piriformis Syndrome?
Piriformis Syndrome is a condition that occurs when the piriformis muscle, located in the buttocks, compresses, or irritates the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve runs from the lower back, through the buttocks, and down each leg. When the piriformis muscle tightens or spasms, it can cause pain, tingling, and numbness in the buttocks and along the path of the sciatic nerve.
Symptoms of Piriformis Syndrome
- Persistent pain in the buttocks
- Radiating pain down the back of the leg
- Tingling or numbness in the buttocks or leg
- Difficulty sitting for prolonged periods.
- Pain that worsens with prolonged sitting or walking
- Muscle tightness in the buttocks
Diagnosis of Piriformis Syndrome
Diagnosing Piriformis Syndrome requires a comprehensive examination by our experienced physiotherapists. We may conduct a thorough physical assessment, review your medical history, and perform specific tests to identify the root cause of your symptoms. In some cases, imaging studies such as MRI or X-rays may be recommended to rule out other potential causes of your pain.
