Sciatica | |||||||
Sciatica is a painful condition affecting the sciatic nerve. The sensation of sciatica can vary widely from numbness, to a mild tingling sensation, and to a severe immobilizing pain. The sensation can be felt on the hip, extending along the back of the thigh, down the side of the leg, and onto the sole of the foot. It is commonly caused by the compression of the sciatic nerve by vertebral abnormalities such as herniated discs, bone spurs, and spinal stenosis.
