Question:
True or false: In piriformis syndrome, in cases of both nerve entrapment & active trigger points, standing and/or prolonged sitting causes pain, and is exacerbated by any kind of activity involving the area... so generally, the pain is pretty consistent.
Author: Alexandra Jessie WilsonAnswer:
True. Why, according to slides: in cases of both nerve entrapment & active trigger points, the pain is increased by sitting or any position with prolonged hip flexion, adduction & medial rotation, by arising from a seated position or by standing. Symptoms are generally aggravated by activity. Any internal rotation of the hip will exacerbate symptoms, especially of the muscle is split and the nerve passes between its two bellies
