Does anyone else have issues with piriformis
I have been having piriformis muscle pain for at least two years. It presses against the siatic nerve causing electrical shock type pain to my foot. Seems to have gotten worse since TKR 9 weeks ago. It aches when walking for extended periods and the real bad pair comes when lying and turning from one side to the other. I have had epidural injections which help some but don't cure the issue. Any advice would be appreciated. Have done PT for it but nothing seems to really help.

@craigslefknee you should see a physical therapists and get some exercises to help get rid of your pain. I’m currently doing PT and MFR with pretty good results. As the weather gets cooler I’m noticing the change in how I feel upon waking up. Cold is no longer my friend.
I am seeing a PT for this. Seems to be helping some. Hope you are having success also
