This question was asked prior and after treatment to our patient Jane 29yrs who is an admin worker in the centre of Manchester.
Answer before treatment
Sciatica is a nerve trapped between the vertebra, causing a lot pain in the legs and bum, its makes it difficult to walk long distances and driving for long periods of time.
Answer after treatment
The sciatic nerve root stems off from the spinal cord providing feeling to the buttocks, legs and feet, sciatica is caused by a disc in the vertebra rupturing or when the disc weakens causing the bones to touch therefore pinching the sciatic nerve root, the pain of sciatica can vary from sharp pains or pins and needle sensation.
Jane was right on both occasions however after the first treatment and consultation went into more detail.
As you can see there is a lot more to sciatica than a pain in the leg so if you have any questions or have been diagnosed with sciatica give a call to discuss.
