Understanding Sciatica
Sciatica isn’t a condition itself, but rather a symptom – often characterized by pain radiating along the sciatic nerve, which runs from your lower back down the back of your leg. This pain can range from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation, and may be accompanied by numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness in the affected leg.

Understanding Disc Problems
Disc problems, also known as herniated or bulging discs, occur when the gel-like center of a spinal disc pushes through a tear in the outer layer. This can put pressure on nerves, causing pain, numbness, or tingling. Disc problems can occur in any part of the spine, but are most common in the lower back (lumbar spine) and neck (cervical spine).
