How Is Sciatica Pain Different From Back Pain?
May 23rd, 2009 | 
Author: I have a shooting like pain down one side of my lower back which runs down towards my buttocks.
I am unable to bend due to this pain. And when i do, its really painful.
Does it sound like sciatica? Or just normal back pain?

Sounds possibly like sciatica / trapped nerve. My mum had really bad sciatica when she was heavily pregnant and had my little bro via c-section in the end, cos the pain was unbearable plus he was a large baby!! She still suffer from back pain now and is on medication for it.
I would maybe check with your doctor and see if he can suggest anything.
Im also currently feeling a similar pain, but havent yet been to a doctor, warm baths and heat pads and a deep heat muscular rub tends to help to relieve my aching back!
Hope that helps.
Please take a look at mine and answer, thankshttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;…
Hi.
I had a severe back pain myself, but hopefully found some solutions. You can ,for example, just visit some back pain relief websites:http://www.ReliefBackPainToday.com
I’m sure you can find some solution to this…hope i helped a bit. See yaa
i’m not exactly sure but if i were you i’d call your caregiver to see if they want you to go in and get checked.
Although the symptoms can be and often are very different the source of the problem is the same. Musculo-skeletal imbalance.
