Question:
Why does tibial torsion occur in piriformis syndrome (images a & b. Image c is normal)?
Author: Alexandra Jessie WilsonAnswer:
It is due to sacroiliac joint dysfunction (due to too much, or too little movement of said joint). (Reason: "The piriformis is a small muscle in the buttock that stabilizes the sacroiliac joint". With client supine there is excessive external rotation of the leg on the affected side)
