Sciatica
Sciatic pain starts in your back and goes down your leg. It can be caused by anything that presses on your sciatic nerve or it’s nerve roots in the spine. Most of the time, sciatica is not caused by anything serious and goes away with time. But unfortunately if you don’t deal with it correctly it will keep returning.
- Usually stiffness and very sharp pain depending on the movement performed.
- People with this condition have a very tight muscular system from the lower back into the buttocks.
- They typically can lead a sedentary, active or very active lifestyle and feel very restricted with movement because of sharp, debilitating pain.
Tasks like bending forward, backward or rotation, putting on shoes, house chores, shopping, getting in and out of a car, sitting or standing too long and even walking and sleeping can be extremely difficult.
- Pain management: over the counter medicine or prescribed medication for nerve pain.
