Description: | Sciatica is the irritation or compression of the nerve roots or nerve fibres that make up the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body about the diameter of a finger. Up to 40% of people will have some form of sciatica in their lifetime. Pain can be felt anywhere along the nerve. Sciatic pain can be felt in the lower back, buttocks, leg, calf, or foot. The most common cause is a herniated spinal disc. The spinal disc can be injured or weakened over time. The disc can compress the nerve roots making up the sciatic nerve and cause pain. Another cause is the spinal bones can shift out of place compressing nerve fibres also causing pain.Most think that the more painful something is the worse the problem is. That’s not quite the case with Sciatica Pain. Keeping active can normally keep most of the pain controlled. The body is excellent at reabsorbing disc material that is causing pain. With prolonged pain, lying down can can help but not for too long. Walking short distances once the pain settles is a great way of keeping Sciatic pain from reoccurring. Creating a treatment plan is key. It should involve pain management and visits to your chiropractic specialist.
