Sciatica - What Causes Sciatica?


A condition called sciatica effects millions of people worldwide each year. It is characterized by pain, numbness and weakness in the lower back and leg regions of the body. Those afflicted may also experience a tingling sensation, a feeling of burning in the muscles and have difficulty when sitting or standing for long periods of time.

Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve located in the lower spinal region (lumbar) is pressed down or aggravated due to some injury or a misalignment vertebrae referred to as spondylolisthesis. In the vast majority of patients compression of the nerve root is the most common cause of sciatica.

The sciatic nerve is known as the longest nerve in the body, it runs from the lower spine down through the back of the thigh, it provides the connection between the muscles in your leg and feet. If the sciatic nerve either through injury or infection becomes compressed it sends signals to the pain receptors in your brain causing this condition.

While in the vast majority of sciatica cases the condition is temporary, long term affliction with this injury has been reported. Typically you can expect your condition to improve approximately 2 weeks up to 6 months varying from each individual.

If your sciatica extends beyond that period consult with a doctor for surgical or other treatment options.
