About Sciatica

Sciatica is one of the most common causes of chronic pain in the United States, and it can occur in people of all ages and activity levels. Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the legs, becomes pinched or inflamed. This can occur due to a number of spine problems, or because of tightness in the piriformis muscle.

Treatment Options

There are many treatment options with sciatica; the variety is due to the great amount of variation in the causes and severity of sciatica. Some options include:

• Physical therapy - Strengthening the back can remove sciatica symptoms, as can stretching out the lower back and the piriformis muscle. You should continue to practice sciatica exercises even after physical therapy ends
• Medication - Anti-inflammatory medications can bring down inflammation until it passes
• Laser spine surgery - A minimally invasive type of spine surgery, used to treat common spine conditions like herniated discs
• Stem cell therapy - A cutting-edge treatment that has powerful anti-inflammatory effects when used for damaged discs
• Nerve stimulation - Can treat stubborn cases of sciatica by interrupting the transmission of pain impulses to the brain
