- A 27-year-old man is brought to the emergency department because of gluteal pain and difficulty walking since sustaining an injury in a football game 3 days ago. He says that he trips on the toes of his left foot. He is a running back and was cutting through the line when he felt a pop in his gluteal region on the left side and had immediate pain. Physical examination shows deep gluteal tenderness. An MRI of the injured area today shows inflammation deep to the gluteus maximus in the area of the piriformis muscle.
