It characterizes with increased pain during prolong immobilization. Simple stabilization exercises will help you and will keep your baby safe and happy. Talk to your doctor and ask for the recommendations who to see in your area. Good luck!

Diagnosis of Piriformis syndrome is very broad and does not specify the reason for your problem. It is very important to determine what causes your symptoms in order to address them. History of the injury, mechanism of the injury, past activities, posture, mobility, your neurological and mechanical status, how you walk, and special tests are important in finding the reason for your complaints. Please see a qualified and experienced Physical Therapist who will spend time with you and answer your questions. Do not settle on the quick screen or short visit in the very busy clinic. Demand certified manual therapists and quality care. You are the customer and your insurance reimburses for the rendered services.=20
Reasons could be many: direct impact to the muscle, your SI or your hip joints could be mal tracking, you could have slight dysplasia or small functional rotary dysfunction in the thoracic spine, you could have T-L junction or lumbar spine dysfunction, you could have problem with your knee or ankle on either side (old sprain/injury), etc.
Before you see somebody you can try finding a comfortable position (back with knees bent, either side lying with a pillow between your knees, or stomach on your elbows) to find some relief, little movement is better than no movement and using heat (chronic condition - more than a week) or cold (acute condition). Be sure to use a protective layer between the heat/cold agent and the skin. You could have a sensory deficit in the buttock area and hurt your skin.=20
Taking care of your body is the best investment you can do and it will pay off for the years to come.
