Pinched Sciatic Nerve Symptoms

Sciatica results from irritation of the sciatic nerve. (Remember, this may be from one of a number of possible causes.) The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body running from the lumbar spinal cord in the low back, through the buttock area to the knee where it branches into two nerves that continue down to the feet. Sciatica is commonly felt only on one side of the body.

1. Sciatic pain may be:
1. shooting or burning
2. sharp or dull
3. non-stop or intermittent
2. numbness or tingling (pins and needles) radiating from the lower back and upper buttock down the back of the thigh to the back of the leg.
3. feeling of weakness in the leg or foot.
4. walking may be difficult and painful.
