Insurances
Description
  • Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, typically caused by compression or irritation. This nerve runs from the lower back through the buttocks and down each leg. Sciatica can result from various conditions, such as a herniated disc or spinal stenosis.
Need for Medical Attention
  • Medical attention is necessary if individuals experience persistent, sharp pain, numbness, or weakness along the sciatic nerve pathway. Treatment may include physical therapy, medications, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
FAQ
  • Can sciatica be prevented?

While some factors are beyond control, maintaining good posture, regular exercise, and avoiding prolonged sitting can help reduce the risk.

  • What are non-surgical treatment options?

Non-surgical treatments may include anti-inflammatory medications, physical therapy, and epidural steroid injections.
