Sciatica is nerve pain from an injury or irritation to your sciatic nerve. In addition to pain, it can involve tingling or numbness in your back or butt that may also radiate down your leg. More severe symptoms are also possible.
Your sciatic nerve is the longest and thickest nerve in your body. It’s up to 2 centimeters wide. Despite its name, it’s not just one nerve. It’s actually a bundle of nerves that come from five nerve roots branching off from your spinal cord. PHYSIOTHERAPY is a primary, non-surgical treatment for sciatica, focusing on reducing pain, inflammation, and nerve compression through targeted exercises, manual therapy, and education. Tailored plans improve strength, flexibility, and mobility, helping to alleviate symptoms and prevent recurrence. For more information contact us on 57617042 or at sirec.mu@gmail.com
