What Is Sciatica?
The sciatic nerve is the biggest nerve in the body. It runs from the lower back through the hips to the feel and foot’s sole. Sciatica is a condition that happens when the sciatic nerve is pinched, which leads to pain and discomfort along the nerve. Many people only have pain in one part of the body. Symptoms can be mild or severe, and appear as an electric shock. In most cases, sciatica tends to resolve on its own with medical treatment. But in more severe cases, permanent damage may occur and lead to further complications. [1]
