Sciatica

Sciatica is a condition we frequently address at Ortho Vision Physiotherapy Clinic, a leading pain management clinic in Jaipur. Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. It typically affects only one side of your body.

Causes of Sciatica:

  • Herniated Disc: A common cause where a disc presses on the sciatic nerve.
  • Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spine can compress part of the nerve.
  • Piriformis Syndrome: Muscle spasm in the piriformis muscle can compress the sciatic nerve.
  • Spondylolisthesis: A condition where one vertebra slips over another.

Symptoms of Sciatica:

  • Pain: Ranges from mild to sharp, burning pain that can extend from the lower back to the calf.
  • Numbness: Loss of feeling along the nerve pathway.
  • Tingling Sensation: Pins and needles feeling in the leg or foot.
  • Weakness: Muscle weakness in the affected leg or foot.
