Sciatica - Cause and Effect
How the pain of sciatica is transferred from the site of injury

Here is an ailment that is literally a pain in the bum. That's one area where the effect is often felt before it travels down the leg. The cause is damage or pressure on the sciatic nerve which is close to the spine in the lower back. For some the discomfort may be relatively mild; for others extremely debilitating. The full article goes into more detail; but for now it is easier to say sciatica can be treated. What does seem fairly clear is that, although it may impact in later life, the reason it has come calling most likely happened considerably earlier in life.

The regular lifting of heavy weights can wear the soft tissue separating the vertebrae resulting in spinal stenosis. In this state, a disc might slip and trap the sciatic nerve. There are other causes such as bad posture, sitting for too long, being overweight, and moving in a way that twists the spine and puts pressure on it. The article covers some of these issues and it is a worthwhile read; especially for younger people as a guide to helping them avoid what can be a very painful medical condition.
