    Default Piriformis Syndrome & other pain

    Hello everyone,

    I was diagnosed with PS and now I am rehabbing from surgery. What other pain do you have associated with PS? For me, both my knees hurt intermittently and I have bilateral groin pain. The knee pain is a burning sensation and the groin pain is more of a sharper pain. Also, when I sit in a chair or in the car the back of my legs hurt, I would describe it as a pressure type of pain.

    I am interested in what everyone has to say about the other pains they are having besides the one they've been diagnosed with

    Craig,
    I have also been diagnosed with PS but I am waiting for a good time to remove it. My pain goes from the sacrum to the hamstring attachment. It also hurts when sitting and doing piriformis stretches or pushing on the pilates reformer. Then I get flashing sciatic pain down to my ankle and in the back of my leg. Hope this helps.

    Hi, Philly,
    How did you get diagnosed with piriformis syndrome? I can't find anyone who will give me a diagnosis or any kind of test.
