Piriformis syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle, located in the buttock region. Symptoms include pain in the buttocks and down the leg, exacerbated by sitting or lower body movement.

Treatment focuses on muscle relaxation through rest, ice, stretching, and medications or injections to relieve pain and spasms. Whil
