I do have problems with my Piriformis yes. But it all stems from my lower spine, not the other way around. <br />I had severe disc herniation a few years ago (which I got surgery for) and it's left my muscle tension permanently altered. All the muscles in the leg that had severe Sciatica are now shorter than the other leg. <br />I stretch and stretch them, but it's no use. I find that if I forget to stretch then things get worse. Doing Pilates/core work several times a week is very helpful and I've recently gotten strict with myself again as I've been suffering quite a bit with my spine of late (fecked discs in neck too :o(<br /><br />Still, we battle on (and up hopefully!)Sonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14370412463329339876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2452398833714147628.post-27989206910158275392010-03-04T05:10:07.402-08:002010-03-04T05:10:07.402-08:00Hey Sonya,
great blog thanks!
Your hamstring prob...Hey Sonya, <br />great blog thanks!<br />Your hamstring problem sounds like something I suffer from on and off: Piriformis syndrome. Its a kind of psiatica that runners/hillwalkers and people that do a lot of sitting get. Piriformis is a muscle in the but/back of leg that when tight pinches on the psiatic nerve. Sypmtoms are tight hamstrings, knee pain and lower back pain. I find it improves if I excercise regularly and stretch and avoid the sofa laptop combo. <br />Lucy (on my laptop from the sofa).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743358541764134320noreply@blogger.com
