    dear taha,
    i am khaleel
    working in UAE
    sciatica is radiating type of pain from lower back to down to leg
    but one thing should remember while diagnosing sciatica
    sciatica is not a diagnosis
    it is symptom
    diagnosis will be
    either
    piriformis syndrome or nerve compression from the disc
    in my clinic i did lot of differential diagnosis
    and i got quick result
    if u need further information abt sciatica
    feel free to contact me
    my email id

    good luck
    khaleel

    Re: Sciatica

    I agree, sciatica is a symptom.

    Need to diagnose the cause - namely the interface at which the nerve is being compressed or irritated. Check Lx spine and piriformis first in my opinion.
