Miken | BS: Sciatica (52* d) | RE: BS: Sciatica | 12 Dec 03 |
My problem was due to a compression of the sciatic nerve by the piriformis muscle near the hip.. Probably due to extensive use of stair machine at health club. The physiotherapist recommended a stretching exercise (lying on floor,leg at right angle against a doorframe, get as close as you can and hold it for 30 secs). After a few weeks the muscle stretched out diameter decreased, cvompression stopped and pain went away. Switched to the treadmill as well. |
