Do you frequently feel a sharp, piercing pain that starts in lower back and shoots down the back of your leg, when you bend over to pick up something or when you’re sitting for a long period of time? You’re likely experiencing sciatic nerve pain. This specific type of lower back pain, which can radiate all the way to your feet, can be debilitating and is caused by many factors, including:
· Age
· Diabetes
· Being overweight
· Wearing high heels
· Sleeping on a mattress that’s too soft or too firm
· Frequently lifting heavy objects
· Repeated twisting of your back
· Driving for long periods of time
All of these can lead to a herniated disk, bone spur or a spinal misalignment – also called a subluxation – that presses on the large sciatic nerve that branches off your spine and runs down the back of your legs all the way to your feet.
Also, if you’re experiencing back pain in your pregnancy, sciatica might be to blame.
Common symptoms of sciatica include:
· Pain in your leg and buttocks, especially on one side, that increases when sitting
· A tingling or burning sensation running down one or both legs
· Weakness and difficulty moving your foot or leg
· Hip pain
