I recently suffered through a sciatic problem which lasted for over two weeks. I was in terrible pain, but the doctor only prescribed anti-inflammatory pills and sent me to physio. The pain was around lumbar 4 but went all the way to my toes. I did recover…slowly, but if it happens again is there something that I can do so I don’t miss so much time at work? A faster healing process? I can’t afford to go for 2 weeks without pay again.

I’ve been diagnosed with kidney stones. But most of my pain is in my left thigh and groin. Is this unusual or from some other cause than the kidney or ureter’s swelling pushing against or pinching the sciatic nerve?

I suddenly felt a sharp pain running down my right leg, which I believe is sciatic nerve pain. I play tennis for about three hours a day and run for one hour. My activity level could account for the shooting pain; however, no time soon will I be able to cut down on my exercise. Is there anything that I can do to ease the pain before tomorrow or even before next week?

The sciatic nerve is the nerve that runs from the lower back of the waist thru to the back of the leg. in some people it causes so much discomfort and pain and cant be seen thru an xray. However it is not common and little is known about it.

I have ongoing back issues with documented sciatic. Does RLS happen because of sciatic nerve damage?

I was operated on for a Abdominial Aorta Aneurysm. The Dr. damaged the sciatic nerve. How can this be repaired?

I’m not entirely sure this is sciatic nerve pain as the pain does not go down my leg. It is in my left buttocks and the left side of my calf but does not radiate down my leg.

For about 2 years now I have been having problems with my sciatic nerve on the left side of my back and it tends to travel into my hip and left leg. Is there any particular exercise that wold help this problem?

A friend of mine had what is called a vertebrae plasti, to repair fractured lower vertebrae. It appears that the procedure was successful, but something else happenedd afterward. Could the sciatic nerve have been pinched or compressed diring the procedure, causing intense pain, to the point of not being able to plant her feet.

I am getting a pain on my left side. Starts around my hip and down to my toes.
My toes tingle every once in awhile and I can’t sleep on my left side.. or sit too long.
Is this from the sciatic nerve you think?
