Muscle Energy Technique and Stretching Exercise in Working Pregnant Women With Piriformis Syndrome...

Piriformis Syndrome

Piriformis syndrome is a neuro muscular disorder which occur due to the compression and irritation of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle causing pain, tingling, and numbness in the buttocks and along the sciatic nerve. Muscle energy technique is one of manual technique in which the muscle uses its own energy in the form of isometric contraction to relax the muscle by the autogenic inhibition of reciprocal inhibition. Reciprocal inhibition in muscle energy technique was succeeded in relieving pain and improves flexibility.

Investigation of the Presence of Piriformis Syndrome Accompanying Lumbar Radiculopathy

Piriformis SyndromeLumbar Radiculopathy

Piriformis syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder that is characterized by piriformis muscle tenderness, hip, and leg pain, and may be accompanied by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve under the piriformis muscle. There are many studies in the literature to establish diagnostic criteria for piriformis syndrome, and there is still no clear consensus on these criteria. However, cases with lumbar radiculopathy were accepted as exclusion criteria in all these studies. The aim of our study is to investigate whether lumbar radiculopathy and piriformis syndrome can coexist. For this reason, a diagnostic piriformis muscle injection under ultrasonography guidance is planned for patients with lumbar radiculopathy who also have a prediagnosis of piriformis syndrome clinically.

Effects of Global Hip Versus Isolated Abductors Strengthening Exercises in Patients Withsecondary...

Piriformis Syndrome

The study will be a randomized controlled trial. Twenty-four subjects will be assigned randomly by using the lottery method into two groups. Group A will be given a hot pack in addition to the global hip muscles strengthening exercise while group B is the control group which will receive a hot pack in addition to hip abductor strengthening. The time duration will be 6 weeks. Pain intensity will be assessed by NPRS.3 sessions per week will be given for 6 weeks. Outcome measures will be taken at baseline, in 3rd week, and at the end of the 6th week.

Comparative Effect of Active Release Technique Versus Self-myofascial Release in Improving Piriformis...

Piriformis Syndrome

The goal of this Randomized controlled trial is to examine comparative effect of active release technique versus self-myofascial release in improving piriformis syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is: • To compare the effects of Active release technique (ART) and Self-Myofascial release (SMFR) on pain intensity, hip internal rotation and functional disability in patients with piriformis syndrome. Participants will be a given consent form and after subjects read and sign the informed consent, they would be included in study according to eligibility criteria. 2 groups would be included in study, Active release technique will be applied on group A by the physiotherapist and self-myofascial release will be applied on group B by the patients themselves through the use of foam-rollers and massage ball to compare the results of both these techniques on reducing pain, improving range and functional disability among individuals with piriformis syndrome. We will measure outcome through different outcome measure tools.
