☄️ Causes of Piriformis Syndrome: 1️⃣ Muscle Tightness or Spasm – Overuse (running, cycling) or sudden movements. 2️⃣ Trauma or Injury – Falls, accidents, or sports injuries. 3️⃣ Muscle Imbalance – Weak glutes/core leading to overuse of piriformis. 4️⃣ Poor Posture & Prolonged Sitting – Increased pressure on the sciatic nerve. 5️⃣ Nerve Compression – Anatomical variations where the sciatic nerve runs through the piriformis. #hamzamushtaqpt #backpain #piriformissyndrome | Dr. Hamza Mushtaq PT
