What is Sciatica?
The sciatic nerve is a large nerve that runs down the back of each leg. Sciatic nerve pain is leg pain due to medical conditions usually seen in the back. These cause pain, weakness or tingling, which travels through the sciatic nerve and down from the lower back through the legs. Pain radiating down the leg, a burning or sharp pain affecting standing and walking, and pain when sitting can all be indicative of sciatic nerve pain. The pain is usually caused by the sciatic nerve being pinched or irritated at its source. Reasons for this can include disc herniation in the lumbar spine, disc degeneration or narrowing of the spinal cord, also known as spinal stenosis.

What are the Symptoms of Sciatica?
Most people who suffer from Sciatica get it between 30 and 50 years of age. Pregnant women are far more likely to develop Sciatica whilst pregnant due to the pressure on the Sciatic nerve. If you are a sufferer of Sciatica in Hampstead, having effective treatment will help with reducing pains and staying in control. There are many symptoms of Sciatica, some of the most common include:
- Pain in your leg or buttocks that gets worse when you sit
- Burning or tingling travelling down the leg
- Having a weak, numb feeling of finding it difficult to move your leg or foot
- Having a constant pain on one side of the lower body
- A shooting pain that makes standing up difficult
The symptoms of sciatic nerve pain themselves can be treated and the treatments can include hot and cold packs, analgesic medication and in severe cases epidural steroid injections. Painkillers can be bought over the counter or from your local pharmacist and you may be recommended to take Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatories (NSAIDs) such as Ibuprofen or a muscle relaxant to ease associated muscle spasms.
Epidural steroid injections are injections made into the epidural space around the spinal cord and can be extremely beneficial in treating the conditions which can lead to sciatic nerve pain. The injections consist of both a steroid and a local anesthetic and this combination helps to reduce inflammation of the nerves. Pain relief can vary from patient to patient, but many will see many years of relief after such a procedure.

How Long Does Sciatica Last?
The duration of sciatica is critically dependent on its cause. A herniated disc, back sprain, shingles, and degenerative lumbar spine can all cause temporary forms of sciatica, lasting from days to weeks. Each can also cause chronic sciatica. Sometimes degeneration of the lumbar spine and discs can cause chronic sciatica that persists unless surgical intervention is performed.
