Sciatica (Sciatic Nerve Pain)

Are you experiencing a sharp pain running from your back down your leg? It’s not just a pinch; it could be sciatica.

Quiropractica para aliviar el dolor de ciatica

What is sciatica and what causes it?

Sciatica is a condition caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body, which runs from the lower back down to the feet.

This pain can be caused by:

  • Herniated or protruding discs that put pressure on the nerve.
  • Vertebral misalignments that cause inflammation in the lumbar area.
  • Excessive muscle tension, especially in the piriformis muscle.
  • Sedentary lifestyle or poor posture that compresses the nerve.

Common Symptoms:

  • Pain that starts in the lower back and travels down one leg.
  • Tingling, burning, or cramping sensation in the leg or foot.
  • Muscle weakness or difficulty walking normally.
  • Pain that worsens after sitting for long periods or lifting heavy objects.

What happens if sciatica is not treated?

  • It can become chronic, affecting your quality of life.
  • It can cause loss of strength in the leg and difficulty moving.
  • In severe cases, it can permanently affect mobility.
