WhatsApp NowSciatica is pain that follows the path of the sciatic nerve, which extends from the lower back through the hips and buttocks and down the leg. It commonly occurs when a nerve in the lower spine becomes irritated or compressed, often due to a herniated or slipped disc.
Symptoms may include sharp or burning pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the affected leg. Sciatica can range from mild discomfort to severe pain that interferes with sitting, walking, sleeping, and everyday activities. Treatment depends on the underlying cause, severity, and duration of symptoms.
Surgery is generally considered when sciatica does not improve with appropriate non-surgical treatment or when significant nerve compression is present. Surgery may be recommended when:
Severe or persistent pain continues despite conservative treatment.
Numbness or muscle weakness persists or progressively worsens.
Nerve compression significantly affects walking or daily activities.
Imaging identifies a spinal problem requiring surgical treatment.
Sciatica is caused by conditions such as a herniated disc or spinal stenosis.
Serious neurological symptoms require urgent specialist evaluation.
