Sciatica Pain Reduction in Edmonton

Sciatica is medically known as “lumbar radiculopathy.” The majority of people who develop this condition are between the ages of 30 and 50. Sciatica can be caused by a variety of sciatic nerve injuries, including arthritis, bone spurs, herniated discs, or other nerve injuries.

People with sciatica experience apin along the sciatic nerve, which is the largest nerve in your body. The sciatic nerve begins at your lower back and then splits at the base of your spine to extend further down through your buttocks, legs, and finally ends at the bottom of each foot.

sciatica can cause pain in your back, buttocks, hamstrings, legs, and feet, sometimes all at the same time. This is usually due to lightness in the hip and gluteal muscles. As a result, the sciatic nerve can be become compressed as it passes through these tissues. When the sciatic nerve becomes compressed or irritated, you may experience a “shooting.” “stinging,” or “burning” sensation in your lower back, buttocks, legs, or feet.
