Cannot sit for pain pain assessment :(location, - Location: posterior
long time nature, severity (VAS), aspect of thigh
aggravating/relieving factors) -nature: electrical
pain
-severity: 7/10
-
aggravating/relieving
factors: increased
with sitting and
relieved with
standing.
( according to the pain
assessment we
thought of two
hypothesis)
Low back problem referred to -low back AROM -centralization with
the thigh (classification -Repeated/sustained extension,
system) movement peripheralization with
-low back classification staging flexion
(Oswestry scale) - centralization with
-reevaluation from time to extension,
time to re stage the patient at peripheralization with
the classification system flexion FROM
PRONE/STANDING
-Stage 1- extension
category
Piriformis syndrome 1-passive internal rotation 1-negative: (no
from sitting and prone difference in ROM
between sitting and
prone+ no
reproduction of - -
symptoms-electrical
pain)
2-Piriformis Test (flexibility 2- negative: no
test) reproduction of
symptoms-electrical
pain
Walking Pain 1-pain assessment :(location, 1- Location: anterior
limitation severity (VAS), right hip pain
aggravating/relieving factors) -severity: 5/10
-aggravating/relieving
factors: pain
increased in physical
2- symptoms coming with pain activity and is better
with resting
2- the patient
reported hip snapping
with movement- (this
led us to thinking of
snapping hip
syndrome)
Limited ROM AROM/PROM+END FEEL
/goniometric measurement Limited extension

syndrome?) of internal snapping hip) repeating the
