Treatment for Sciatica Pain in Hip and Leg

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve in the lower back becomes compressed. This can stem from herniated discs, sports injuries, bone spurs, or degenerative diseases like Osteoarthritis.

Symptoms of Sciatica include back pain, tingling or numbness in the extremities, muscle weakness, loss of mobility and trouble sleeping. This condition has a profound effect on everyday life, making routine tasks difficult due to uncomfortable symptoms. As such, proper diagnosis and effective treatment are especially important to ensure a full recovery.
