How can a person discern weather a painful condition on one side of the butt is relted to piriformis syndrome, sciatica, or yoga butt (def: inflammatory soft tissue condition often confused with sciatica - that follows the connective tissue from the sacrum to hamstring or vice-versa) - and effectively plan treatment.
My thought is that yoga butt is due to excessive hamstring stretching, and piriformis to excessive gripping or tight rotators. They both involve the sacrum, and they are in the same area - but I’m assuming take totally different treatment plans.
If recommending salabhasana and its variations to stabilize and strengthen, could it further the piriformis condition?
