The Best Place to Start Treating Sciatica
Did you know that up to 40% of Americans suffer from some degree of sciatica? You may be even more surprised to know that many of those people simply suffer with their pain. Sciatica nerve pain can be either mild or severe, or it can be completely debilitating in some patients. Chiropractic care is one of the best places to start when it comes to treating sciatica. TLC Chiropractic in Tallahassee offers quality sciatic nerve treatment to get patients back on their feet.
What Is Sciatica?
Sciatica is a type of nerve pain that originates in the lower back and legs that causes pain or numbness in either one or both legs. When pressure is put on the sciatic nerve, it causes pinching and discomfort, in addition to numbness.
There are many reasons why sciatica may occur. One could simply be a result of poor posture and lifestyle habits that cause an individual to develop lower back pain. Herniated or slipped discs may put instant pressure on the sciatic nerve, as well. In other cases, those who have physically demanding jobs may be at a higher risk of developing sciatic nerve pain.
Common Symptoms of Sciatica
Sciatica is generally simple to diagnose. Visiting our chiropractic office in Tallahassee is a good way to get an accurate diagnosis and evaluation of your condition. The most common symptoms of sciatica include:
- Pain in the lower back that worsens with movement.
- Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations in the lower back or legs.
- Pain originating in the spine that radiates down the back of the leg.
- Feeling of pins and needles in the feet, legs or back.
