Sciatica Resources
If you're experiencing sciatic nerve pain, you're not alone. Sciatica is a common condition that affects millions of people, often causing debilitating pain and making even the simplest daily activities feel challenging. If you've ever had sciatica, you are well versed in this intense pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back, through the hips, and down each leg. When the nerve is compressed, it can lead to symptoms ranging from mild discomfort to intense, burning pain, along with tingling, numbness, and weakness. Sciatica's prevalence and the severity of its symptoms make it one of the most commonly treated conditions in orthopedic practices, and it can affect people of all ages, though it's particularly common in middle-aged and older adults.
Living with sciatica can be overwhelming, as it often impacts your ability to work, exercise, and enjoy leisure activities.
