[@PerformanceSportSpine]

For the positions, find a position that decreases compression to the right side. Driving is tough, but for sitting a donut or soft cushion can help. For sleeping, sleep on your left side, with a pillow between your legs or potentially on your back with a pillow under your knees. This can be a very frustrating and persistent condition.

Hip snapping is typically caused by the gluteal tendon (laterally) or psoas tendon (anteriorly), so possible could contribute to the lateral hip snapping. Unlikely to cause pelvis floor issues

The gluteal/cluneal nerves can get irritated (however the diagnostic criteria for this is poor) and potentially irritated with EXCESSIVE back extensions. As for anterior pelvic tilt, thus is “normal” as is prevalent in the population with no pain (symptoms). And due to bone shape not “tight” or “weak” muscles.

I think I have this pain. It started with me two years ago, and I went to the orthopaedic doctor who asked for an MRI image which indicated that nothing clearly affects the bone. The doctor advised to take NSIAD and a muscle relaxant. However, the pain still exists until this time and it appears particularly after certain workouts like squatting or multiple jumping. What should I do next. I continuously take NSAID such as Celebrex cap to relieve the pain, but for how long…!!! I appreciate your cooperative opinion

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

We would recommend implementing the stretches and exercises described in the video. If you have beaning dealing with this for years, NSAID's or other pain medication will only help with temporary symptoms.

I have this pain for 10 months now, i am so sick and fed up of this pain, i took 6 months off work and no result, it is worse in the morning i can't walk when i get up to use the washroom, i am in severe pain in my buttocks and legs, i have to sit in a chair in my room for 2 to 3 hours for the pain to come down, i try pain killer, laser treatment, acupuncture, stretches and NONE work, i want to know why i cant walk in the morning...I am back at work but i am not ok, i am dying to retire, i am fed up of this life, NO DOCTOR CAN HELP ME, I THINK I WILL DIE LIKE THIS.....One year is coming up and no help, what the youtube people does not work or help me, i am so done listening to them, they make it seems so easy but yet when you do it for 10 months is does not work...DO THIS STRETCH, DO THAT STRETCH, HOW LONG AM I GOING TO STRETCH???????

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

Sounds like you have endured quite a lot. Fortunately there area lot more treatment options for this condition, than just stretching. There is no quick fix for this, but consistent exercise and modifications over several months often sees people improve on their symptoms and quality of life

[@judy777jz]

Thank you for the video and the info. I've suffered bilateral buttocks pain around sitting bone area, and left leg numbness on sitting posture for 2-3 years. MRI and X ray reports are showing hamstring tendinitis and L2, L3 & L5 buldging discs mildly contacting nerve roots. I'm good on standing, walking and lying posture. I went through all of treatments, the left leg numbness is better but buttocks pain is still going on whilst sitting. Do you think it's piriformis issue or something else please? Thank you very much!

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

Thank you, sorry to hear you have been dealing with this for so long. Those are definitely classic symptoms of piriformis syndrome. Have you tried the exercises and nerve mobilizations (or something similar) yet? It could also be proximal hamstring tendinopathy, have you done any rehab for that?

[@judy777jz]

@@PerformanceSportSpine thank you for your return, I feel so grateful to hear from you. I've been doing exercises & stretches consistently in the previous 2-3 years, the left leg numbness has gone off with inversion table therapy, however, buttocks pain on sitting posture is still going on, none of any exercises seems to have worked. Also, buttocks pain comes up shortly after sitting, I can't say it's over use of glutea muscle, etc. Then... Where does this pain come from? Piriformis syndrome / hamstring tendinitis / sciatica / pelvic asymmetry / buldging discs / glutea muscle damage? It's stubborn and chronic. What you think please? And how to treat please? Thanks again

[@judy777jz]

Piriformis syndrome and hamstring tendinitis, are they the same thing or not?

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

@@judy777jz They are different, hamstring tendinitis is often made worse with stretching and/or resisted muscle test for the hamstring.

It's been 4 to 5 months...after Walking some distance it feels better... Trying to stand in one leg makes it difficult... Sitting in a chair sometimes relieves pain sometimes not.

[@maxstranger8651]

Is this a serious problem?

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

It totally depends on how severe the condition is. However, most cases will resolve with following the advice, stretches and exercises shown in this video. Also extremely important to make sure that sciatica as a cause has been ruled out.

[@mitch4248]

Hey, thanks for the informative video! I have all the piriformis Symptoms but unfortunately over the yesrs I found that the first stretch you showed makes the pain much worse. Is there an alternative? Keep up the great work, greetings from germany

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

Sorry to hear that, some cases can definitely be aggravated by stretching. Have you tried the nerve mobilizations (neurodynmaics), making sure the glutes aren't over contacting and limiting any self release techniques (using a tennis ball)? Thanks for the comment!

[@mitch4248]

@@PerformanceSportSpine Thanks for the quick reply. The nerve mobilizations have been part of my daily stretching routine for 2 years now. Together with the glute bridges, side laying leg raises and clamshells I have been able to get the pain to a tolerable level. But I just seem to can‘t get rid of the pain completely. The self release techniques are also making the pain much worse, together with sitting for longer periods of time. I can‘t count how many different doctors i went to. the discs are fine, also the hip joint and tissue. I know it‘s almost impossible to give a diagnosis over some internet comments but if you have any idea what else i could try, please do :) Best wishes

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

@@mitch4248 Have you tried using a cushion or a pillow to help decrease the tension. Is it worse sitting or moving around? Also, some times proximal hamstring tendinopathy can present very similar and have severe pain on the ischial tuberosity (part of pelvis, i.e. sit bone) when sitting. Has that been ruled out? Sorry to hear you have been dealing with this for so long.

[@staytight6340]

@@mitch4248 at the beginning I couldn't do his stretch so I started with easier stretches. Try this on the floor Lay on your side with your knees touching Bend your knees ,like an upside down V Lift the injured side up 20 times After a day or so put pressure on that same knee Hope this helps

Is it possible to make a video differentiating pain coming from the quadratus lumborum, the iliacus and the iliopsoas and then ways to fix them.

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

We are not aware of any tests to be able to differentiate between those structures. We do have some great exercises to help reduce pain from those tissues. Please let us know if that is something you are interested in. Thanks!

[@sandybanks2865]

If I even attempted any of those moves I’d be very sad I did ! Different pains my pains got together and created more pains it’s no joke I’m almost 65 arthritis, no hip cartilage, dislocated tailbone, and I think but arthritis yikes the human body has some tricks up it’s sleeve …… take this take that what till you see what’s next 😳😳😳😳😳😳

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

These are definitely not designed for everyone. Arthritis is no joke, can be really hard to manage. Hope things improve for you.

[@tienluongvan6519]

Sorry. Can you point out the difference? In other videos, you say don't stretch but this video did

[@PerformanceSportSpine]

Good observation. Yes, typically we don't recommend stretching. This condition, however, has a lot of different factors and we have found a sub-group of people that seem to respond to stretching, also others that stretching irritates their condition. So we recommend trying the stretches, if the help continue, if they don't focus on other options.
