“I always enjoyed long drives and sitting at my desk at work, but gradually a sharp pain started in my lower back and shot down my leg. Sitting for even a few minutes became unbearable, and walking felt like dragging a heavy weight.”
This condition is sciatica where the sciatic nerve gets compressed or irritated. This leads to burning pain, tingling or weakness that can affect one's ability to work, travel or even rest comfortably.
When to Seek Help :-
● Pain that worsens with sitting, bending, coughing, or sneezing
● Tingling or “pins and needles” sensation in the leg or foot
● Numbness or reduced feeling along the nerve pathway
● Muscle weakness in the affected leg
● Difficulty standing, walking, or doing daily activities due to pain

This happens because the sciatic nerve is irritated, and the pain often travels along its path into the leg. With targeted therapy, exercises, and care, the nerve pressure can be reduced, easing leg pain gradually.
Yes, many patients return to normal sitting and driving with proper rehabilitation. It takes posture training, strengthening, and regular care, but steady progress is very possible.
Not all cases require surgery. Many improve with physiotherapy, Ayurveda, and lifestyle corrections, and surgery is considered only if pain or weakness does not improve over time.
Not necessarily. Nerves can recover if pressure is reduced early, and therapy helps prevent long-term damage while improving daily comfort.
It’s never too late to start treatment. Even long-standing sciatica can be improved with the right therapies, posture care, and lifestyle guidance tailored to your needs.
