WhatsApp NowSciatica is a condition involving pain in the nerves in the lower back and legs. It usually happens due to a disc herniation or other issues that compress the lower back nerves. In most cases, people with sciatica experience pain in one side of their buttock and leg.
It may occur as a sharp or burning pain or numbness or tingling in the affected leg. Sciatica can limit a person from daily activities due to the pain they experience while moving or sitting. Mild sciatica can be treated by treating the underlying cause, and this may be self-limiting. However, in some cases, treatment may be prolonged with medication.
Surgery only becomes an option when sciatica pain doesn’t improve or worsens because of uncontrolled nerve compression while undergoing non-surgical treatment. Surgery is often suggested when:
Pain medication stops providing relief.
Numbness or muscle weakness occurs and worsens or persists.
Nerve compression affects the ability to walk or perform normal activities.
Imaging reveals a structural problem that requires surgical repair.
Conditions such as a herniated disc or spinal stenosis cause sciatica.
Highly concerning or serious symptoms require quick surgical evaluation.
