Sciatica Pain Relief And Leg Pain

Sciatica pain relief and pain down the leg

What you need to know when you have pain down the leg…

Sciatica is a difficult and painful condition, and as common as it seems to be, it is very much MISUNDERSTOOD, what we mean by this is everyone has an opinion on it, or even experienced it, the internet is full of exercises and remedies to cure it…

We could go as far to say if you have a pain down your leg most people will automatically says its sciatica, sometimes it is, often it is not.

However there is one BIG detail missing, most people cannot diagnose it, most people do not realise sciatica is not a diagnosis…

Sciatica is a sign that something is compressing the nerve, this can be disc, joint, muscle, pathology…That is what you really need to know…

If you have no diagnosis, non specific treatment can further irritate the nerve, delay recovery or even damage further..

With pain down the leg or sciatica there are many remedies and supplements offered especially online however they can be very hit and miss as different tissues respond differently, such as muscle injury, joint pain or pathology.

And as much as yoga, pilates swimming and other activities are great for helping your body, and a big fan of these, they can still increase pain and the problem….

Often we have patients attending the clinic who have spent lots on supplements, seen the doctor, massage therapist and other therapists and we are the last chance saloon… Occasionally one of these may work based on probabilities unfortunately most of the time they don’t.
