What Is Sciatica?
Sciatica is a health condition that occurs when the sciatica nerve becomes inflamed. This nerve exits the spine at the lowest vertebral levels. This very bottom of the spine is where most people experience low back pain as well. The sciatica is the longest nerve in the body. It runs from the lower back to the toes. This nerve can experience pain due to:
- Disc herniation
- Injury from a slip/fall, car accident, or other sudden trauma
- Spinal “subluxations”, or misalignments
- And rarely, by tumors or other spine lesions
Sciatica nerve pain can be frustrating and can interfere with your life. Because this condition is more painful when seated, patients encounter problems at work or when relaxing at home. The common symptoms of sciatica include:
- Numbness, and tingling, especially in the feet/toes
- Weakness in the legs or feet
- Consistent pain in one of the buttocks
- A burning sensation in the leg
- Leg pain that becomes worse when seated
- An intense pain that makes it hard to stand
When you suspect any signs of sciatica, it is good to book an appointment with one of our providers before the issue worsens. If left untreated, sciatica can cause permanent damage to the sciatica nerve, and surgery may become the only option.
