gluteal and piriform muscle strain

The pyramidalis muscle (what the answers.com site wrongly calls the pyramidal muscle) is in the lower abdomen.

On the other hand, the piriform muscle is located in the buttock and closely associated with the gluteals.

Muchos de nosotros hemos tenido, al entrenar o competir, un DOLOR LOCALIZADO EN LA NALGA que puede irradiar a la parte posterior del muslo, y hemos pensado que era lumbago o ciática, pero EN CORREDORES ES MUY FRECUENTE ENCONTRAR COMO CAUSA AL: PIRAMIDAL, un músculo pequeño localizado en la pelvis utilizado sobretodo en el gesto de correr (zancada, impactos, fuertes ritmos) y es el causante de los síntomas del SÍNDROME PIRAMIDAL O PIRIFORME.
