Last week I had this electric shock feeling in my right glutes for the first time. It lasted 1-2 seconds and occurred twice on the same day. It is a violent and very painful sensation that makes you stop whatever you're doing and just scream from the pain.
Then a few days later I felt it again, but much weaker, thank god. It was more of a pulsation feeling. I had 4-10 pulsations and it stopped. I had it in the right and left glutes, maybe 3 times. Even if weak, It is a reminder of the full symptom and it is making me fear the coming of it. I started taking magnesium again in the hope that it would make it go away. Maybe why it's weaker now ?
Would it be just a posture problem ? I am sitting so much, and this muscle is taking the blow, I guess. Anybody else has this symptom and how do you deal with it ?
I found this, it looks like it might be the answer. By sitting too much, the piriformis muscle is shortened : http://blog.timesunion.com/running/piriformis-syndrome-a-real-pain-in-the-butt/8122/
