Inflammation of the sciatic nerve

The sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the human body, extends from the lower back to the feet. Its inflammation, known as sciatica, can be quite unpleasant. The pain radiates along the entire area of the nerve’s projection. Meanwhile, the other leg typically experiences numbness or tingling. In some cases, discomfort may be present in both legs.

This type of neuralgia is characterized by worsening pain during sneezing, coughing, laughing, or when sitting or standing. Importantly, sciatic nerve compression is not a disease itself but a result of other pathological conditions such as spinal disorders (disc displacement, herniated discs, spinal canal narrowing), muscle spasms, pelvic organ diseases, hypothermia, infections, or injuries of various origins.

This means that it’s essential not only to relieve the pain but also to identify and eliminate the cause of the inflammation. The specialists at the Marusych Center in Kryvyi Rih can assist you with this. Thorough diagnostics and comprehensive therapy ensure quick symptom relief and long-lasting results!
