Do you have pain deep in your buttock that travels down the back of your leg? Does sitting for long periods make the pain worse? Do you feel tingling or numbness without a clear back injury? Are you searching for a βphysiotherapist near meβ for buttock and leg pain? You may be experiencing piriformis syndrome.
Why Does Piriformis Syndrome Occur?
The piriformis is a small muscle located deep in the buttock. If it becomes tight, inflamed, or goes into spasm, it can irritate the nearby sciatic nerve. This may cause pain, tingling, or numbness that resembles sciatica.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physiotherapy focuses on relieving muscle tension and improving hip function. Treatment focuses on:
β’ Piriformis stretching exercises
β’ Hip and gluteal strengthening
β’ Sciatic nerve mobility exercises
β’ Soft tissue release techniques
β’ Postural and movement correction
What You Can Try at Home
Avoid prolonged sitting, take regular walking breaks, stretch the hip muscles gently, warm up before exercise, and avoid activities that worsen the pain.
For specialised care, Dr. Deepika Bansal β Physiotherapist in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, Pimple Saudagar provides personalised physiotherapy programs to reduce buttock pain, improve mobility, and help you return to pain-free daily activities.
