What is Piriformis Syndrome?

Piriformis syndrome is a condition that causes pain in the buttock and sometimes down the leg, mimicking sciatica. The piriformis is a small muscle located deep in the buttock that helps rotate the hip. When this muscle becomes irritated or inflamed, it can compress the sciatic nerve, leading to pain, numbness, and tingling along the sciatic nerve pathway.

Symptoms of Piriformis Syndrome:

  • Pain in one buttock, often described as a deep ache or burning sensation
  • Pain that may radiate down the back of the thigh and into the calf, mimicking sciatica
  • Pain that worsens with sitting, squatting, stair climbing, or running
  • Increased tenderness in the buttock upon touch

Diagnosis and Treatment of Piriformis Syndrome at Dr. Srivanth's Orthopedic Clinic:

Dr. Srivanth will perform a comprehensive physical examination to assess your symptoms, range of motion, and any muscle weakness. Imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs may be used to rule out other causes of your pain.

Treatment for piriformis syndrome typically focuses on reducing inflammation and pain, improving flexibility, and strengthening the core and hip muscles. Our treatment plan may include:

  • Rest and Activity Modification: Avoiding activities that aggravate your pain, such as prolonged sitting or certain exercises.
  • Physical Therapy: Stretching and strengthening exercises to improve flexibility and stability in the hip and core muscles.
  • Manual Therapy: Massage techniques to improve circulation and reduce muscle tension in the piriformis muscle.
  • Anti-inflammatory Medication: Medications to reduce pain and inflammation.
  • Steroid Injections: Injections of corticosteroids around the piriformis muscle to reduce inflammation in severe cases.
