Signs of Sciatica
Sciatica can lie dormant for a long time, but when it awakens—things get interesting. Here are its "calling cards":
Every step becomes difficult, and with lower back pain, you don't know how to sit, stand, or lie down to get even a little relief.
- Burning pain and "shooting" sensations in the lower back or leg that spread from the hip to the heel.
- Numbness and "pins and needles," as if your leg is being attacked by an army of tiny bugs.
- Decreased sensitivity and movement problems.

Causes of Sciatica
The sciatic nerve can suffer for many reasons:
The piriformis muscle also enters the scene—if it becomes inflamed and swollen, pressure on the nerve increases, and pain sensations reach a new level. Sciatica especially often troubles expectant mothers when the load on the spine increases.
- Displaced vertebrae, protrusions, and hernias
- Injuries, hypothermia, unfortunate movements
- Gynecological diseases, spinal tumors
