Are you suffering with piriformis pain? We can help. We are a completely free and expert-written resource that fosters a community environment where patients can learn everything they need to know about piriformis disorders.

Piriformis pain can be caused by injury, imbalance, hyperlaxity or hypertension in this small muscle which is located deep in the anatomy of the buttocks, near the hip joint. Piriformis symptoms can take many forms, including discomfort that is experienced in the muscle itself, as well as pseudo-sciatica called piriformis syndrome.

We are an independent patient education and advocacy organization. We do not accept sponsorships or financial incentives that could potentially compromise our editorial objectivity. In fact, we never allow money to get in the way of providing you the honest facts.

If you need immediate help with severe pain, please learn more about our proprietary and proven pain relief program. The program is available 24 hours a day from anywhere in the world and has enjoyed widespread international acclaim among doctors and healthcare organizations.
