The sciatic nerve is the longest in the human body. Originating from the lower back and extending down the back of each leg, it enables movement and control of muscles of the lower body. However, sciatica, which refers to pain that shows along the path of the sciatic nerve, is relatively common. Today, let’s talk about sciatica and how you can soothe it with HeaWea MicroGen.
Causes of Sciatica
It is estimated that up to 40% of people will experience sciatica at some point in their lives. While it can occur at any age, it most commonly affects people aged 40 to 59.
Sciatica typically occurs when there is pressure on or irritation to the sciatic nerve. Several factors can contribute to the development of the pressure, including:
- tumors
- obesity
- diabetes
- bone spurs
- prolonged sitting
- muscle spasm or injury
- slipped or herniated disc
- the narrowing of the spinal canal
Symptoms of Sciatica
Sciatica pain exhibits a wide range of sensations. For example:
- gentle tinglings
- burning feelings
- mild aches
In severe instances, the pain can also make people unable to move.
Sciatica often occurs on one side of the body. Individuals may experience intense pain in specific areas of the leg or hip with numbness elsewhere. The impacted leg could also feel weakened, causing the foot to catch on the ground or stumble slightly during walking.
The pain might begin mild and gradually worsen:
- after standing or sitting for a long time
- during the night
- while sneezing, coughing, or laughing
- when leaning backward
- when walking too much
- during bowel movements
Measures to Take Care of the Sciatic Nerve
In some cases, treatment may not be necessary, and the pain can recover by itself.
The following options can help you protect your back and calm the symptoms at home:
- using the body properly
- maintaining good posture when sitting
- working the muscles in the abdomen and lower back
- not staying in one position for too long
- avoiding tobacco products
- using heat or ice on the painful area
- taking over-the-counter medicines
If your sciatica pain continues despite several weeks of self-care, or if you have concerns about the recovery that does not happen as quickly as you expected, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional.
