Piriformis Syndrome: Part I The patient with an unrelenting sciatica may be

suffering with a piriformis syndrome.

~~

I've had this! Talk about painful! but I *knew* it wasn't coming from my back.

What seems to start the whole thing off is my right hip would dislocate. But now

with the exercises and some polarity work, I haven't had it for some time.

It mentioned precipitating conditions --I've had 3 lumbar laminectomies in the

past (because of foot drop each time)....since then I've experienced chronic

pain in the sciatic nerve, at times with a weak foot that will drag. (It

resolves with rest.)

The article is very informative! Thanks for posting it!

So glad it was helpful!! I spend hours doing research to understand

what is going on with the girls and myself and am thrilled that it

can benefit others, too.
