Piriformis syndrome: My experience with piriformis syndrome has involved pain in the affected side groin and hip area. There is pain on LOWERING the affected side leg after raising the same leg. It involves spasm of the piriformis muscle of the pelvis and will respond to appropriate rest and medications (muscle relaxation, antiinflamatory medication)
