The term “sciatica” refers to the pain experienced when the sciatic nerve becomes compressed by inflammation or other spinal abnormalities.
Sciatica affects many people. The debilitating pain can ultimately impact your work and personal life, making it difficult to walk and even sleep with sciatica.
A bulging disc or herniated disc is the most common cause of sciatica. As the disc bears down on the sensitive nerve (usually affecting the L4/L5 or L5/S1 levels), it restricts blood flow and important nutrients from reaching all sections of the sciatic nerve through the lower back, hips, buttocks and down each leg.
When portions of the nerve are deprived of nutrition, they are unable to emit electric impulses in a proper fashion, known as sciatica. When the nerve becomes pinched due to an underlying condition, a number of different sciatica symptoms can occur.
Symptoms of Sciatica
Sciatica usually occurs on only one side of the body and follows the nerve from the low back to the foot and toes. In rare cases, patients experience pain on both sides, also known as bilateral lumbar radiculopathy.
Sciatica symptoms include:
- Numbness
- Tingling
- Shooting pains
- Sudden stabbing pains
- A burning sensation
In most cases, the level of discomfort changes with position, but constant, chronic pain is also possible.
The Bonati Spine Procedures can provide immediate relief with sciatica treatment, especially if your symptoms of sciatic pain are related to a herniated disc or lumbar bulging disc that is compressing one of the nerve roots before it joins the sciatic nerve. When surgery for sciatica is required, The Bonati Spine Procedures are the best alternative to open back surgeries that often result in long recovery time.
