What Is Sciatica?

Sciatica is an inflammation or irritation of the sciatic nerve, which can be caused by a huge range of factors. This nerve originates in the lower back, then branches and runs down the back of each glute and into each thigh. It is the largest nerve in the body, and one of the most common to cause pain and discomfort.

What Causes Sciatic Pain?

One of the most common causes of sciatica is a herniated disc. Discs are the jelly-filled sacs that sit between each vertebra and serve to support your spine and ensure that vertebrae do not rub together. When one of these discs ruptures, the jelly may leak out, pressing on the nerve that runs through your spinal column and causing discomfort or even extreme pain. Other causes include bone growth, muscle problems, tumors and internal bleeding, among others.

What Are the Symptoms of Sciatica?

Because the sciatic nerve is so large, you may feel it in any number of areas in the body. Some people feel it in their lower backs, the lumbar region, while others experience it in their glutes, their thighs or the backs of their knees. In addition to pain, you may feel symptoms such as:

  • Numbness
  • Tingling
  • Weakness
  • Aggravation of pain by walking or bending
  • Pain on one side of the body, but usually not both
  • Difficulty walking

If you have any of these symptoms, it’s important to see a chiropractor for help today. We will not only diagnose the issue, we will form a treatment plan right away so that you can go back to enjoying life as normal as soon as possible.
