Sciatica Symptoms In Hip

Sciatica Symptoms - Low back pain may be present along with the leg pain, but typically the leg pain is markedly more severe than the low back pain. Patients often describe their sciatica symptoms as electrical shocks running down the leg, or searing or burning pain.

For some people, sciatica pain can be severe and debilitating. For others, the sciatica symptoms might be infrequent and irritating, but have the potential to get worse. Here are the specific contents of the Sciatica Symptoms.

Common Sciatica Symptoms

Usually, sciatica affects only one side of the lower body and the pain radiates from the lower back to the back of the thigh and down the leg

For some people, sciatica pain can be severe and debilitating. For others, the sciatica symptoms might be infrequent and irritating, but have the potential to get worse.

Symptoms may intensify during sudden movements, such as a sneeze or cough, or when changing positions, such as when moving from a sitting position to standing up.

Pain in the rear or leg that is worse when sitting

Some combination of the following symptoms is most common:

• Constant pain in only one side of the buttock or leg, but rarely in both sides
• Pain that originates in the low back or buttock and continues along the path of the sciatic nerve-down the back of the thigh and into the lower leg and foot
• Pain that feels better when patients lie down or are walking, but worsens when standing or sitting
• Pain typically described as sharp or searing, rather than dull
• A "pins-and-needles" sensation, numbness or weakness, or a prickling sensation down the leg in some cases
• Weakness or numbness when moving the leg or foot
• Severe or shooting pain in one leg, making it difficult to stand up or walk
• Pain and other symptoms in the toes, depending on where the sciatic nerve is affected
• Lower back pain that, if experienced at all, is not as severe as leg pain

Certain symptoms are unique depending on the underlying cause of the sciatica. For example, bending the body backward or walking more than a short distance often triggers symptoms when spinal stenosis is the cause. Bending the body forward may trigger symptoms if the cause is a lumbar herniated disc.

Summary

The main symptom of sciatica is a shooting pain anywhere along the sciatic nerve; from the lower back, through the buttock, and down the back of either leg (usually, only one leg is affected).

This pain can range from mild soreness to a sharp pain or severe discomfort, and may be aggravated by sitting for long periods.

Other common symptoms of sciatica include:

• Numbness in the leg along the nerve; occasionally, this numbness in one part of the leg may be accompanied by pain in a different part of the leg
• Tingling sensation (pins and needles) in the feet and toes
