First seen Mar 17, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study used ultrasound to measure the thickness of the sciatic nerve and piriformis muscle in 19 adults with piriformis syndrome, a condition that causes hip and leg pain. Researchers compared the painful side to the painless side to understand whether muscle or nerve issues are more important. The goal was to improve diagnosis, not to test a treatment.
