About Sciatica

Sciatica is a painful condition affecting the sciatic nerve. The pain travels along the sciatic nerve, which begins at the base of the spine, then on to the buttocks, and then continues down to the thighs and calves.

The pain isn't limited to one specific area of the sciatic nerve. It can travel from the lower back and then branch off to one side of the body. Sciatica usually focuses on one side or the other. The pain may not radiate along the entire nerve. It is possible to feel pain and numbness at the same time in one leg.

When the sciatic nerve has been compromised, it results in pain and discomfort. You may experience a dull ache, a burning sensation, or a tingling sensation. You may also experience issues with a foot or leg feeling weak or numb.

Causes of Sciatica

Sciatica can be caused by a variety of problems. The cause is one of the things our team will determine when you have an examination at our clinic. Causes of Sciatica may include:

• Herniated disc
• Pelvic injury
• Pelvic fracture
• Slipped disc
