If you have low back pain for a while or it just had started, you need to pay attention.  There are many causes of Low back pain and sciatica is one of the reasons.  Low back pain can prevent you from working, spending time with friends and family, and living a full and happy life. Not all low back pain is caused by sciatica, but if you are experiencing symptoms that are bad enough that you can’t enjoy your regular daily activities, you should visit us at Chiropractic Neurology Enhancement Center. We can determine the underlying cause of your low back pain and find the root cause, whether it is due to sciatica or another cause.

Common Causes of Sciatica

Sciatica can be caused by a herniated disc, a bone spur on the spine, a growth on the spine, or a narrowing of the spine caused by spinal stenosis. When the sciatic nerve is compressed or injured, you will experience sciatica symptoms

How to Tell if You Have Sciatica

While sciatica does cause lower back pain, there are key symptoms that differentiate it from other forms of back pain. Sciatica generally affects only one side of your body, and in addition to back pain, you will experience pain that radiates from your lower back through your hips and down your leg below the knee. If the leg pain is not running below the knee, it is not sciatica.

This pain can be a mild ache or a sharp, burning sensation. It may prevent you from resting comfortably, walking, working, or sleeping. You may also experience numbness and tingling in your leg, as well as muscle weakness.
