[|Human|] I ve had issues recently with piriformis syndrome. I fell outside and landed in my back tonight. I had excruciating pain in my left glute down to my ankle. The pain went away with aleve, Ice and rest. I m still sore, my ankle feels like I stubbed it and if I rotate my torso to the left I can feel soreness in my chest. Is this normal? Should I see a doctor?
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. Due to compression of nerve root there can be gluteal, and leg pain associated with it leading to walking difficulty. Medication like methylcobalamine with neurotrophic like pregabalin will reduce pain; you can take them consulting your treating doctor. You may consult physiotherapist for further guidance. He may start TENS, or ultrasound which is helpful in your case. I will advise checking your it B12 and it D3 level. If MRI shows disc compressing on nerve root then surgical decompression is permanent solution. You can send your MRI films or report. So that I can help you better. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Take care.
