Piriformis Syndrome

An Uncommon but Consuming Pain

Though the piriformis muscle is confined to your butt, it figures prominently in almost every lower-body movement and can cause pain and discomfort all the way to your foot when it spasms and pinches the sciatic nerve. Piriformis syndrome is uncommon – doctors say it accounts for less than six percent of low-back pain – but, if you have it, you may think of little else.
