Summary
This book provides an informative guide to Piriformis Syndrome, a condition in which the piriformis muscle, located in the buttock region, spasms and causes buttock pain. The piriformis muscle can also irritate the nearby sciatica nerve and cause pain, numbness and tingling along the back of the leg and into the foot (similar to sciatic pain). This book examines the various clinical approaches to managing Piriformis Syndrome to ensure the best possible outcomes for patients presenting with the condition. Piriformis Syndrome incorporates a uniform design to the chapter structures and includes comprehensive coverage of the topic. Clinicians seeking guidance for the management and treatment of Piriformis syndrome will find this book to be an essential resource for clinical practice.
