SCIATICA

What Is Truly "Sciatica"

Sciatica is the name given to any sort of pain that is caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve.

The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body. It begins in your lower back and travels all the way down to the heel of your foot, on both legs, and controls most movement and sensation throughout the lower limbs.
