Awesome as always! Just a quick presentation of the most used tests for diagnosis would be great also.

Thank you so much my friend

I think dependent on what study you look at, determines the 'percentage' /most common cause e.g. disc issue /compression or adhesion at say piriformis or hamstring? Great videos btw i learn a lot

[@ClinicalPhysio]

Thank you so much Daniel very kind of you I think one of the key considerations now is that Piriformis is thought of far less as potential cause than we used to think it did , which has in turn increased suspicion that it is more lumbar

Hi Khalid. Your background is very distracting and not particularly comfortable for the eyes.
