Sciatica


Sciatica Treatment from Our Chiropractor in Manhattan

If you're contending with leg pain and other troublesome symptoms that make standing, walking, and even sitting intolerable. Ideally, you want a sciatica treatment plan that can ease your symptoms by fixing their underlying causes without having to undergo spine-altering surgery. Here at Vitality Health New York, our chiropractor Dr. Neel Kumar in Manhattan has your answers.

Sciatica Treatment from Our Chiropractor in Manhattan

Sciatic Nerve Impingement and Its Consequences

Sciatica refers to pain and dysfunction of the sciatic nerve. This enormous nerve is a central conduit for all the nerve signals passing between the leg and the spinal cord. Since it routes all the signals to the smaller nerves of the buttock, leg, and foot, anything that compresses the sciatic nerve, or more commonly the nerve roots that connect it to the base of the spinal cord, can disrupt communications to any of these components. Sciatica may be caused or aggravated by:

    • Degenerative disc disease (such as bulging discs)
    • Spinal stenosis or bone spurs in the lumbar spine
    • A herniated disc pinching one of the sciatic nerve roots
    • Poor posture that promotes spinal nerve compression
    • A specific kind of vertebral misalignment called spondylolisthesis
    • Pregnancy, which causes both weight gain and spinal alignment changes
    • Soft tissue swelling that presses against nerve tissue

Sciatica symptoms can vary greatly, attacking you in bouts that may last for weeks at a time. Leg pain is the most common symptom, and sitting down to rest your leg may actually make this symptom worse. Your leg or foot may also experience numbness or tingling. Impaired motor signaling may cause weakness or muscle of control, potentially impairing your balance.
