Sciatica, what is the best treatment for it?

Do you have shooting pain or burning pain down the leg? Are you experiencing a tingling or numbness sensation in your leg? Does your pain get worse with prolonged sitting or standing? If you answered “yes” to any of these, then there’s a high likelihood that you have a condition known as Sciatica.

One of the primary causes of Sciatica is restricted motion in spinal joints. When the bones and joints of the spine are not moving well, it will cause nerve root irritation or compression.

When the nerve gets irritated, the pain and other symptoms of Sciatica are produced.

What are the causes of Sciatica?

One of the primary causes of Sciatica is a restricted motion in spinal joints. When the bones and joints of the spine are not moving well, this causes an irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. When the nerve is irritated, the pain and other symptoms of Sciatica are produced.

There are some additional conditions that can cause Sciatica to develop. These include:

Slipped Disc
Muscle Spasms
Pregnancy
Bone fractures, tumors, and infections

What are the symptoms of Sciatica?

The symptoms of Sciatica are typically felt on only one side of the body, as it is rare that both sides would be affected at the same time. However, in severe cases, a Sciatica condition which is left unaddressed and unattended to over time can affect both sides, alternating from one side to the other. These symptoms include:

Tingling, burning, or shooting pain on one side of the body, starting in the lower back and going down the buttock and leg, sometimes all the way to the foot
Pain that gets worse after sitting or standing for long periods of time
Pain that gets worse when coughing, sneezing, laughing, or while having a bowel movement
Weakness or numbness in the thigh, leg or foot
Walking can be painful or difficult

CONSTANT BACK PAIN GONE

" I would like express my gratitude to you for having helped me tremendously on my road to recovery. When I first came to see you, I was having a constant pain in my back which had been bugging me for more than a year. Two specialists that I consulted recommended that I go for spinal fusion surgery as there are signs of disc degeneration in my spine. I was quite averse to having major surgery and would want to avoid it or at least put it off for as long as possible. I decided to look for alternative forms of treatment to see if anything else would help. I was so glad that I came to see you. After only 12 treatments, I have experienced significant improvement with my back problem. The constant pain is no longer bugging me. Thank you very much." L.H.
