      I recently underwent decompression surgery for L4/L5 herniated disk and I'm experiencing a combination of both sciatic and piriformis pain. I have sharpe pain when I attempt to rise from a reclining position, but force myself to endure the pain in order to get to my feet. Then I have to wait several minutes while supporting myself with crutches before the pain ends. Am I doing damage to the piriformis or extending the healing time by forcing myself to stand upright?

He siad "it might be this or it might be that, I can give you an x ray and Pain killers but the x ray may not show anything." Im like wth bro.

    Some theorize that maybe 40 percent of the human population may have a ‘deformity’ where the sciatic nerve essentially grew thru the Piraformis muscle, or more accurately the Piraformis muscle grew around the sciatic nerve.

    As a paraplegic, my sciatic nerve is constantly being compressed and I feel fire from the hollow of the butt cheek to my ankle, down the backside of my leg. I stretch every day, yet still deal w/ daily fire, which varies between a 4/5 and 9+ on a scale of 10. There are days I would give anything for some relief. I just keep stretching and massaging, as shown in your video.

      After the CT myleogram--I do have and HAVE had sciatica ( nerve root compression and disc issues--THO there are many people who have disc degeneration without any pain at all.) BUT also have the secondary, the piriformis pain in the bumm. BOTH issues are far less problem than the reversal of my necks curve and more nerve root compression as well as narrowing of the space in my spine. The mid back pain? Is really rough. Makes it difficult to even take a deep breath.

However, I've been doing a 40 minute piriformis routine involving stretching, foam roller massage, and strengthening exercises, and my condition seems to have worsened. This is confusing. I welcome any comments if you have the time. Again, thank you.

      @M G I am the same I found a position to be relatively without pain.
      Lying on the pain free side with pillows propped up under the pelvis.
      May I also suggest you get a wheatbag or two. Much better and softer against a sore butt, the a rubber hotwater bottle.
      Hotwater bottles are too harsh! All corderoy wheatbags are the best! They caress better!
      As soon as I am starting to cramp up with lots of pan, I retreat back to my bed. One wheatbag on my sore ankle, one on my hip.
      The heat helps to stop the cramping. It takes 6 weeks? Wow! I am 3 weeks in and it is getting somehow better.
      At least, I do not have to fear the 1st toilet run anymore!. Trying to sit on a cold toilet seat, crippled with pain! (Horrible situation!!!) I even warmed the seat, which helped.
      But this horrible cold wind is making it worse again! Stay out of the cold!
      The other thing that also helped with the pain was Ibuproven tablets, against the inflammation! But only take them in absolute need. Same with panadol, it gives a break from pain!
      The clamp exercise helped me. Both versions! And lying on my stomach, with elbow arch for 10 minutes.
      PAIN IS SO EXHAUSTING!

    Yep, I have piriformis then. I had to go to the ER a few years ago. I had so much pain in my leg and thigh I could barely walk. My leg felt like it was on fire. I was in tears. It hasn't gotten that bad since then. I keep down inflammation (the thing that caused the burning sensation) with anti inflammatory things and foods.
    Now I just get numbness in the back of that leg down to the feet, and it spasms often. I make the spasms go away with magnesium. Now I am looking into exercises that will relieve the pressure that is on the sciatic nerve. I also know what caused this for me. One day i got the not so bright idea to do 100 squats in one go without preparing or stretching or whatever. 😐
    The next day, here comes piriformis performer syndrome. 😑

      For everyone's benefit, it took me 9 months to completely heal sciatica/herniated disc. McKenzie exercises helped me greatly. I avoided stretching the glute muscle since it may aggravate. I did not see a doctor at all and healed it by doing a lot of stretching based on Bob & Brad's videos. I also sometimes took Ibupurofen and turmeric pills. I got herniated dsic due to sitting in a bad posture for a long time due to office work, so I bought myself a standing desk.

    So about 9 months ago I think i tweaked my back. Since then Standing for log periods of time causes radiating pain and numbness in my right butt down my leg. This is also paired with pressure on my lower right side of my back, as if someone is standing on my lower back. The piriformis stretches seems to relieve it alot. I dont feel pain when i sit but my leg does tend to go in and out of numbness at times. Would you say that I its the piriformis?

    You mentined only stretching for piriformis syndrome but sometimes the piriformis doesnt need stretching. Sometimes the piriformis muscle is having to work too much & you need to strengthen the muscles around it.I find that when you strengthen the minimus ( muscle opposite the piriformis ) the pain from the inflammed piriformis/sciatic nerve goes.

    I might be too late here to get a response, but this video has been really helpful and raises a question: is there a relation between pyrifomis syndrome and trochanteric bursitis? Several years ago I went through physical therapy for the bursitis diagnosis, with pain that was excruciating. Therapy was difficult at first, but wonderfully beneficial! In more recent years I sometimes experience mild pain that is reminiscent of that. The past few weeks I've been having a bit more pain after a strain, and I'm sure from your video this is pyriformis. So is there a relationship to trochanteric bursitis?

    I have been dealing with muscle spasm just below where you pointed out,
    it never goes to the or left but stays generally in the same spot just
    below where your hip pocket bottom would be in pants. What causes it to
    act up is long sitting like driving long distance or at the movies even
    sleeping on my back aggravates it. When I walk to stand it settles down.
    I have been to PT twice and it always comes back even though I follow
    the exercise regimen I get from PT after I'm released but it always
    comes back. I have found that one of those hard exercise balls if I put
    it where I'm sitting with a folded face towel on it I get instant relief
    but it never lasts. I've been dealing with burning pain for almost four
    years. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    She examined it and ordered an MRI. It showed arthritis but there want bulging disks.
    I'm comfortable with her assessment. She is a hospitalist (internal medicine) and a DO.
    I've seen two MDs that diagnosed me with just sciatica but treatment has not been effective. I've also been to a Chiropractor and had limited results but I've still been in pain.

      It is more rare to have both. But the treatment of true sciatica usually takes priority. As some of the positions for treatment of piriformis syndrome could irritate sciatica. If you find no relief from the stretches/exercises you may require hands on manual treatment to deal with one or the other before treating it yourself.

Then I started doing exercises and stretched and I started feeling a bit better it seems but the other day I wasn't absolutely able to sit down because I always felt this discomfort and only when I walked around I felt better. Yesterday I had the opposite problems because I felt better sitting down than standing up and from yesterday I started having this discomfort/pain in my leg once again, which was missed in the previous days.

This is very important because my wife has had two back surgeries that didn't alleviate symptoms and a recent CT myelogram of the lower back that didn't show any abnormalities .so now we're trying to find a true diagnosis because it's getting worse overall and she is miserable and her symptoms get exponentially worse when she sits down and pain and discomfort is alleviated by standing.. any thoughts?

      That bit was weird indeed. As far as I know and from my experience, the pain in piriformis syndrome gets worse both with standing and sitting, it only gets better when laying and not on the side you have pain. The pain gets temporarily better when you change position (from sitting to standing etc.) and it starts getting worse again after a while from the change of position, except when you lay, then it continues getting better. The morning is the moment when it's better.
