Piriformis syndrome is a severe neuromuscular disorder caused by compression of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle. The piriformis muscle is a flat, band-like muscle found in the top part of the hip joint in the buttock. Piriformis syndrome is most common in adults and can affect people of all ages and levels of activity. Trauma, spasms, and overuse damage are the most prevalent causes of piriformis syndrome. The piriformis syndrome is also more common in patients with lower back discomfort, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).
Stretching the piriformis muscle many times a day, particularly when paired with hamstring exercises, will avoid lower back tightness and release tension from hip to foot. The rising incidence of piriformis syndrome, more screening, rising safety and success of medication therapies, and the growing senior population are all driving the piriformis syndrome market. The complications of procedures, as well as a lack of information regarding the disease, are among the market limitations. Furthermore, difficulties in diagnosing the illness among the patient population is expected to limit the Piriformis Syndrome market growth during the forecast period.
