What is Sciatica? Sciatica is a symptom, not a diagnosis
Sciatica means that a patient’s sciatic nerve is being compressed by another spinal structure, usually causing pain in the low back, on one side of the rear and/or down the back of the leg. Sciatic nerve irritation usually occurs at the L5 or S1 level of the spine.
The clinical diagnosis (and the focus for treatment) would be whatever problem is actually causing the nerve compression and the sciatic pain. The most common low back problems that cause sciatica are:
- Lumbar disc herniation—where the inner core of a spinal disc in the low back extrudes and places pressure on a nerve root; also called a pinched nerve, slipped disc, bulging disc or protruding disc.
- Lumbar degenerative disc disease—when weakened discs in the low back allow excess motion in the spine and cause irritation of the nerve roots
- Isthmic spondylolisthesis—where one vertebral body slips over another and pinches a nerve root
- Lumbar spinal stenosis—in which a narrowing of the spinal canal in the low back pinches nerve roots, sometimes as the result of a bone spur
- Lumbar subluxation—a term describing an altered position of the vertebra in the low back and the functional loss that results
The sciatica experience can be different for each patient. Sciatica pain can run from the low back, down the back of each leg and sometimes into the feet and toes. Other sensations associated with sciatica may include tingling and/or a burning or prickly feeling, usually only on one side of the body. Patients typically feel different types of sciatic pain depending on the location of the nerve compression.
The severity and duration of pain from sciatica also vary among patients. Some find sciatica pain severe and debilitating, while others experience it as irritating and intermittent. Many patients recover from an episode of sciatica within a few weeks, but there is no hard and fast rule.
Patients who have sciatica are best served by a treatment plan that is individualized based on the patient’s symptoms, diagnosis and response to various treatments. The process of finding relief from low back pain and leg pain associated with sciatica can often require some trial and error.
