Understanding Sciatica

Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain radiating along the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the hips and buttocks and down each leg. Typically, sciatica affects only one side of the body and is often caused by a herniated disk, bone spur on the spine, or narrowing of the spine (spinal stenosis) compressing part of the nerve. This compression causes inflammation, pain, and often some numbness in the affected leg.
