If you’ve ever experienced sharp pain running down your leg, you may know the discomfort of sciatica. This condition occurs when the sciatic nerve — the longest nerve in the body — becomes irritated or compressed.
What Causes Sciatica?
- Spinal disc issues pressing on the nerve.
- Spinal misalignments.
- Muscle tension or poor posture.
- Pregnancy-related changes.
Symptoms to Watch For
- Shooting pain in the lower back, buttock, or leg.
- Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the leg.
- Pain that worsens when sitting for long periods.
