Symptoms of a myofascial trigger point include: focal point tenderness, reproduction of pain upon trigger point palpation, hardening of the muscle upon trigger point palpation, pseudo-weakness of the involved muscle, referred pain, and limited range of motion following approximately 5 seconds of sustained trigger point pressure.

Piriformis syndrome is often left undiagnosed and mistaken with other pains due to similar symptoms with back pain, quadriceps pain, lower leg pain, and buttock pain. These symptoms include tenderness, tingling and numbness initiating in low back and buttock area and then radiating down to the thigh and to the leg. [ 72 ]
In the animal model, the enzyme acetylcholin esterase, and its inhibition, plays a role in the development of myofascial trigger points and the associated myofascial pain syndrome. By injecting a mouse muscle with acetylcholin esterase inhibitors and electrical stimulation, the muscle develops myofascial trigger points. [36] [37]
It’s held in place with strong, fibrous ligaments and supportive muscles. Hip pain can arise from various injuries to the tissues in and around your buttock, such as: Bone. Connective tissue ...
Iliocostal friction syndrome, also known as costoiliac impingement syndrome, is a condition in which the costal margin comes in contact with the iliac crest.The condition presents as low back pain which may radiate to other surrounding areas as a result of irritated nerve, tendon, and muscle structures.
Piriformis syndrome occurs when the piriformis irritates the sciatic nerve, which comes into the gluteal region beneath the muscle, causing pain in the buttocks and referred pain along the sciatic nerve. [8] This referred pain is known as sciatica. Seventeen percent of the population has their sciatic nerve coursing through the piriformis muscle.
Tension myositis syndrome (TMS), also known as tension myoneural syndrome or mindbody syndrome, is a name given by John E. Sarno to what he claimed was a condition of psychogenic musculoskeletal and nerve symptoms, most notably back pain.
Patients also frequently report persistent or intermittent pain or dysthesias in posterior hip, buttocks, or thigh. [4] Unlike discogenic sciatica (caused by the spine), patients with deep gluteal syndrome report exacerbation of symptoms with pressure in the buttocks, such as tenderness or pain on deep palpation, or pain on prolonged sitting.
