What Causes Sciatica?... And Why is Your Leg Pain Not Getting Better?
If you’ve got sciatica pain, stiffness or an ache – it’s very tempting to think that it’s nothing, that it will go away on its own. Or, you might pass it off as having just over done it, or that it’s just a “ache” or a bit of stiffness that “everyone” your age suffers from…
There’s no obvious reason why it happened – but it doesn’t seem to be shifting and its been there a good while now.
If that’s happening to you, you’re not alone – and we hear this type of thing all the time. In fact, long term sciatica pain is one of THE most common problems that we see at Southside Physiotherapy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sciatica Pain
What causes sciatica pain?
Sciatica pain occurs due to compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, usually caused by a herniated disc, bone spur, spinal stenosis, or muscle inflammation in the lower back.
How is sciatica pain diagnosed?
Diagnosis often involves a physical examination by a healthcare professional to assess symptoms, along with imaging tests like X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to pinpoint the source of nerve compression or irritation.
What are the typical symptoms of sciatica pain?
Common symptoms include sharp, shooting pain that radiates from the lower back down through the buttocks and legs, tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness in the affected leg.
What are the best treatments for sciatica pain?
Treatment options include pain management (e.g., medication, injections), physical therapy, exercises to improve flexibility and strengthen core muscles, and in severe cases, surgery to alleviate nerve compression.
How long does it take to recover from sciatica pain?
Recovery time varies depending on the severity and cause of the pain. Acute sciatica might improve within a few weeks with proper care, while chronic cases might require more extended treatment.
Should I rest or stay active when experiencing sciatica pain?
While rest is crucial during acute flare-ups, maintaining gentle activity and specific exercises recommended by a healthcare professional can often aid in recovery and prevent stiffness.
Are there specific exercises that can help with sciatica pain?
Yes, exercises focusing on stretching and strengthening the lower back and leg muscles can often alleviate sciatica pain. Your healthcare provider or physiotherapist can suggest suitable exercises.
Can lifestyle changes help manage sciatica pain?
Maintaining good posture, regular exercise to strengthen muscles, proper body mechanics during lifting, and weight management can help manage and prevent sciatica pain.
When should I seek medical attention for sciatica pain?
It's advisable to seek medical advice if the pain is severe, persistent, or accompanied by bladder or bowel control problems, or if there's sudden, severe weakness in the leg.
Can sciatica pain lead to long-term complications?
In some cases, untreated or chronic sciatica pain might lead to reduced mobility or muscle weakness in the affected leg. Seeking timely medical advice can help prevent potential complications.
Please note that these FAQs provide general information and should not replace personalised advice from a qualified healthcare professional. It is important to consult with a trusted physiotherapist to assess your individual case and determine the most suitable treatment plan for your sciatica pain.
