Sciatica is quite common and affects almost 25-30% of adults. Sciatica pain traverses through the sciatic nerve, that starts in your lower back and extends to run through your hips, buttocks, legs, and feet on both the sides. This is the most distinctive sign of sciatica pain. The nerve pain primarily occurs due to irritation of the sciatic nerve. A proper sciatica diagnosis and the best sciatica treatment is all that you need to lead a pain-free life.

Before knowing about sciatica treatment, one needs to understand that no two sciatic pain episodes are similar as they range from annoying dull pain to excruciating pain. The sciatic pain is generally felt more severely in your leg than your lower back.

The symptoms of sciatica are as follows: –

• Calf pain – pain that stretches down the lower leg and back of the knee.
• Lower back pain running down the leg
