Sciatica is a condition where the sciatic nerve (which runs from your lower back down through the legs) gets compressed or irritated. This usually happens due to a slipped disc, spinal degeneration, or nerve compression at L4, L5, or S1 levels.

Common Symptoms:

  • Pain in the lower back, buttocks, and legs (usually one side)

  • Tingling or burning sensation

  • Numbness or weakness in the leg or foot

  • Difficulty walking or standing for long

Treatment Options for Sciatica

Non-Surgical Treatments:

  • Medicines: For pain relief and nerve inflammation (must be prescribed by a doctor)

  • Physiotherapy: Stretching and strengthening exercises

  • Lifestyle changes: Avoid lifting heavy items, use proper sitting posture

Surgical Options:

  • Microdiscectomy or Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery
    – Needed when pain is severe or not improving with medicines
    – Especially effective when MRI shows disc pressing on the nerve
