The piriformis muscle is a small muscle located deep in the buttocks. Piriformis syndrome is usually an irritation of the sciatic nerve caused when the piriformis muscle contracts. If you have that, you might have pain running down the back of your leg, into your thigh, calf, or foot. You might also notice tightness in your buttocks, and it might be painful to the touch.
