Sciatica can cause sharp, radiating pain that travels from the lower back through the hips, buttocks, and down one or both legs. For many people, this pain can make walking, sitting, working, and even sleeping difficult.
Sciatica is a condition that occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated, inflamed, or compressed. The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body and extends from the lower back through the hips and down each leg.
When pressure is placed on this nerve, it can cause pain and other symptoms that travel along the nerve pathway.
