Why does it hurt to push the meridians in the buttocks?

If the buttocks feel painful during the process of pushing the meridians, on the one hand, it is directly related to the fact that the practitioner is too strong in the process of performing the manipulation, or that the patient is receiving the manipulation of pushing the meridians for the first time, and his or her own tolerance level is too low. Generally, after 3-5 times of treatment, the patient will be able to adapt to this level of treatment. On the other hand, the pain felt during the buttock pushing meridian may be directly related to the local lesions, which may be chronic muscle strain, or the symptoms in the buttock triggered by lumbar disc herniation and spinal stenosis. It may also be the pain reaction triggered by the stimulation of the local lesion in the process of receiving treatment, or it may be due to the herniated intervertebral disc compressing the sciatic nerve, because the projection of the sciatic nerve on the surface of the buttocks is located between the greater trochanter of the femur and the sciatic tuberosity, and it may touch the compressed nerve root and trigger a localized pain reaction.
