Sciatic nerve pain, commonly known as sciatica, is a condition where the sciatic nerve—the largest nerve in the body—gets irritated or compressed. This leads to radiating leg pain, lower back nerve pain, or tingling down to the foot. Whether you’re experiencing pinched sciatic nerve, nerve root compression, or lumbar radiculopathy, Curis Life Multi-Specialty Clinic in Andheri West offers precise diagnosis and expert treatment with the help of our Expert Spine Surgeon and pain management team.
From early intervention for acute sciatica to advanced solutions for chronic sciatic pain, we provide personalized care to help you get back on your feet—pain-free.
What Is Sciatica?
Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the hips and down each leg. It usually affects only one side and occurs due to compression of L4, L5, or S1 nerve roots.
Common Types and Related Terms:
- Lumbar radiculopathy – nerve root irritation in the lower spine
- Sciatic neuritis – inflammation of the sciatic nerve
- Lumbosciatica – combination of back and leg symptoms
- Ischias – alternate term for sciatica
- Sciatica in pregnancy – due to posture or pressure changes
- Post-injury sciatica – after trauma or spinal surgery
Symptoms of Sciatic Nerve Pain
Sciatica symptoms vary but may include:
- Sharp, burning, or radiating pain from the lower back to the leg
- Tingling in leg and foot
- Numbness in lower limb
- Leg weakness due to back pain
- Difficulty standing or walking due to leg numbness
- Pain from back to foot, often one-sided
- Symptoms worsened by sitting or prolonged standing
Causes of Sciatica
Sciatic nerve pain may arise from:
- Herniated disc or slipped disc
- Degenerative disc disease
- Spinal stenosis causing sciatica
- Piriformis syndrome (muscle compressing the nerve)
- Facet joint syndrome
- Lumbar disc prolapse
- Lumbar nerve compression
- Sciatic nerve entrapment
- Past spinal surgery or injury
