Understanding Sciatica and Nerve Pain
Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is irritated or compressed, often causing shooting pain, numbness, or tingling down one leg. Other nerve-related conditions can affect the neck, arms, or back, limiting mobility and daily activities.
Common causes include:
- Herniated or bulging spinal discs
- Spinal stenosis or nerve compression
- Poor posture and weak core muscles
- Muscle imbalances and tension in the lower back
- Injury or repetitive strain
