"Hi All, M getting some niggle from sciatica at the moment. Do any of you have any useful advice. PS, I've tried a wank and that failed to remedy!" I suffered from this for a couple of months every day. I used to have long hot showers and do lots of moving round in the shower followed by a lot of muscle rub (wintergreen)... I had to do 30 minutes prep each morning before I could get about, amazingly it just faded after I bought a new mattress. | |||

" My experience is that a chiropractor will only rectify a problem temporarily, not solve the problem. Yoga, stretching and activity worked with me. Carrying heavy kit and being in awkward positions for ling periods did my back in. But within 2 weeks of a bit of yoga I feel so much better." Perfect! | |||

My sciatica started at the age of 13 and was at it's worse in my 20's and 30's. There are many things you can do to ease the pain. I rarely suffer now, and when I do it's usually mild and not long lasting. You have to find what works for you. | |||

"Not a doctor, but as others have mentioned sciatica is from a trapped nerve. What you generally have is an overdeveloped muscle pressing against the nerve. People have mentioned stretching but I would also recommend a foam roller. If you use it properly it will deactivate the tonic muscle and allow it to atrophy, reducing the chance of pressing on the nerve. This plus stretching should be a good way to go. " Think you're referring to the piriformis. Check "piriformis stretch" on YouTube and there's a load of vids. Doesn't have to be over development causing the issue, sitting for long periods (desk job) can shorten it causing the same issue. And for the sake of stretching for 3 mins a day it's well worth a try. | |||
