My Pelvis, Groin & Buttock

Understanding Pelvis, Groin and Buttock Pain

This region is a hub of muscular, ligament, and joint connections linking your spine, hips, and legs. Pain here can be disabling and may result from sports injuries, muscle strains, or nerve irritation. Because many structures overlap, expert assessment is required to identify the root cause.

Common Pelvis, Groin and Buttock Conditions We Treat

Groin Strains – Common in sports involving sudden direction changes.

Piriformis Syndrome – Tight buttock muscle compressing the sciatic nerve, causing pain down the leg.

Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction – Irritation of the joints connecting the spine and pelvis, leading to lower back and buttock pain.

Hip Labral Tears – Cartilage injury causing deep pelvic/groin pain.

Sports Hernia (Athletic Pubalgia) – Persistent groin pain in athletes.

Hamstring Origin Tendinopathy – Pain at the top of the hamstring, near the buttock.
