Sciatica is a condition that results in pain along the sciatic nerve. The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in the body, and it runs from the spinal cord down to the feet. Symptoms of sciatica can include pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness in the legs.

There are many causes of sciatica pain, including a herniated disc, spinal stenosis, Piriformis syndrome, and sacroiliac joint dysfunction.

The most common symptom of sciatica pain is a sharp or burning pain that radiates down the leg. Other symptoms may include tingling, numbness, and weakness in the leg.
