Gmax = gluteus maximus; Pm = piriformis muscle; sn = sciatic nerve; S = sacrum; H = hip bone. Injections are part of multi-modal therapy and can be therapeutic. [29] [2] They may be used with conservative treatments like physical therapy or after the failure of conservative treatments. Injections deliver medication directly to the piriformis ...

Tendinopathy is a type of tendon disorder that results in pain, swelling, and impaired function. [2] The pain is typically worse with movement. [2] It most commonly occurs around the shoulder (rotator cuff tendinitis, biceps tendinitis), elbow (tennis elbow, golfer's elbow), wrist, hip, knee (jumper's knee, popliteus tendinopathy), or ankle (Achilles tendinitis).
The various causes of non-discogenic sciatic nerve entrapment are categorized. [3] 2011 - Endoscopic surgery to decompress the sciatic nerve in the deep gluteal space. [34] 2015 - Definition, diagnosis, treatment, etc. proposed for deep gluteal syndrome. [1] [6]
Inflammatory arthritis can sometimes cause symptoms in parts of the body other than the joints, like the eyes, heart, or lungs. As arthritis progresses, joint damage can get worse.
Gluteus medius tendonitis, also known as Gluteal amnesia or colloquially as Dead Butt syndrome is a lifestyle disease that affects the gluteus maximus muscle characterized by a lack of muscle tone and strength in the buttocks, typically from excess sitting.
The causes of intra-articular snapping hip syndrome seem to be broadly similar to those of the extra-articular type, but often include an underlying mechanical problem in the lower extremity. The pain associated with the internal variety tends to be more intense and therefore more debilitating than with the external variety. [ 4 ]
Trendelenburg's sign is found in people with weak or paralyzed abductor muscles of the hip, namely gluteus medius and gluteus minimus. [1] It is named after the German surgeon Friedrich Trendelenburg. It is often incorrectly referenced as the Trendelenburg test which is a test for vascular insufficiency in the lower extremities.
