Common Causes of Sciatica

The sciatic nerve is the largest and longest nerve in the body. It runs from the lower back and continues down the back of the leg. If you have pain extending through this area, you may need to seek sciatica treatment in Brandon, FL. While there are many causes of sciatica, the following are some of the most common.

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

As we age, chiropractors often see the degeneration of the vertebrae, discs, muscles and ligaments that combine to make the spinal column. When the spinal canal becomes narrow in the lumbar area, this is known as Lumbar Spinal Stenosis. This condition can compress portions of the nerves that combine to form the sciatic nerve.

Piriformis Syndrome

The sciatic nerve runs extremely close to the piriformis muscle, which is located deep in the buttock region. When this muscle becomes tight, it often puts pressure on the sciatic nerve, causing irritation and inflammation.

Herniated Disc

A herniated disc occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior casing. If this protrusion compresses the nerve roots that form the sciatic nerve, it can result in sciatica.

If you are experiencing the symptoms of sciatica, it’s important to get evaluated by your physician to determine the cause. Contact us to request an appointment with our sciatica chiropractor to start treatment today.
