Sit bone pain, also known as ischial bursitis, is a common condition caused by inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that cushion the sit bones, which are the ischial tuberosities. This pain can be exacerbated by prolonged sitting, repetitive motions, or activities that put pressure on the sit bones. Watch my full video #185 | Dr Andrea

Sciatica - What is it and how is it treated?

ISCHIAL TUBEROSITY is a bony landmark found on both sides of the inferior aspect of the pelvis. This is important attachment site for muscles such as the hamstrings.
