\n\nPain: <\/b>The hallmark symptom of sciatica is pain that radiates from your lower back through your buttock and down the back of your leg. The pain can vary widely, from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation or excruciating discomfort.\n\nNumbness or Tingling:<\/b> Along with pain, you may experience numbness or tingling sensations along the path of the sciatic nerve, often extending down into the foot or toes. This numbness or tingling can range from mild to severe.\n\nMuscle Weakness:<\/b> Sciatica can also lead to muscle weakness in the affected leg. You might notice difficulty moving your leg, foot, or toes, or you may feel a sense of heaviness or instability in the leg.\n\nDifficulty Standing or Sitting:<\/b> People with sciatica often find it uncomfortable to sit or stand for prolonged periods. Certain positions may exacerbate the pain, while others may provide temporary relief.\n\nPain Worsened by Movement:<\/b> Sciatica pain is typically aggravated by certain movements, such as coughing, sneezing, bending, or twisting. Activities that involve prolonged sitting or standing may also worsen the pain.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Are You Suffering Suffering From Sciatica Pain? Fortify can help!
