Sciatica

Sciatica is a condition in which the sciatica nerve running from the lower back down to the feet feels irritated or compressed. The patient experiences pain in the path of the sciatica. It mostly occurs when a herniated disc or an outgrown bone puts pressure on any part of the L5 or S1 nerve roots in the spinal canal leading to inflammation, numbness, and pain in some areas of the leg. Sometimes it can be due to compression of the sciatic nerve in the pelvic region when it passes under a muscle called pyriformis.

The sciatica nerve pain may vary from a mild ache to a strong burning pain and can feel like a jolt or an electric shock. It gets worse from coughing, sneezing or sitting for a very long time.
