Accessible Beltway Clinics Chiropractors Treat Piriformis Syndrome
At Accessible Beltway Clinics our Chiropractors in Maryland,
Washington DC and Virginia treat piriformis syndrome. For most people the
sciatic nerve passes right beneath the piriformis muscle, but in approximately
15% of the population, part of the sciatic nerve goes through the piriformis
muscle.
The piriformis muscle is located in the buttocks and reaches
from the pelvis (sacrum) all the way to the upper thigh-bone (femur). Piriformis
syndrome occurs when the piriformis muscle spasms due to issues in the spine or
sacroiliac joints, or from overuse. The
symptoms of piriformis syndrome can be very painful and disabling. Fortunately,
for the majority, chiropractic treatment at Accessible Beltway Clinics has
proven to be very effective in relieving these symptoms.
Piriformis Syndrome Can Cause Lower Body Pain
Sympotoms of Piriformis Syndrome include pain to the lower
back, groin, perineum, buttock and hip. Piriformis syndrome can also cause
dyspareunia (painful intercourse) and pain in the rectum during defecation. The
most common symptom of piriformis syndrome is lower back pain that travels
through the buttocks and down the leg.
Piriformis Syndrome is Often Mistaken for Other Ailments, Our Chiropractors know the True Piriformis Syndrome Diagnosis
Other pains are often mistaken to be piriformis syndrome.
One underlying difference between piriformis syndrome and other ailments is
piriformis syndrome has neurological symptoms associated with it such as
pain, numbness, pins and needles feeling, tingling and weekness. If you or a
