Most people depict sciatic pain as sharp, achy, dull, like needles or pins pricking the skin. Many will say that its like experiencing electric shocks all up your rear end and leg. Other feelings related with sciatica are numbness, tingling, and burning sensations that never seem to stop and increase with stress and anxiety.<br />
<br />
Sciatica is caused by any number of reasons but the main one is from physical strain over the years of one's life. Some of the more common ones are bad posture both in sitting and sleeping, muscle strains from sports or other strenuous activities or other physical maladies. All of these add up to extra stress on the sciatic nerve and surrounding tissue which can cause the flair ups. For the most part, it is the nerve itself that is normally being irritated, where from tumors, pregnancy or other factors.<br />
<br />
Moreover, the most usual cause of Sciatica is the extreme and constant contraction of the muscles. The sciatic nerve runs under the piriformis muscle, and this muscle is positioned in the lower section of the spine and aid with the hip rotation. The piriformis muscle is prone to being hurt by arthritis in the hip, a fall, or when one leg is shorter than the other since this can bring in spasms and contraction in the muscle which squeeze the Sciatic nerve. <br />
<br />
To find out the cause of sciatica, the doctor has to evaluate the patient's medical history, and have them to undergo a neurological and physical examination. This medical examination consists of MRI, CT scan, and x-rays. <br />

It's a good idea to run through any and all of these tests that your doctor orders as one of them is likely to reveal the source of the problem. Always bare in mind the importance of pinpointing the cause or underlying factor first, so you can work towards elimination. There are many causes of sciatic nerve pain.<br />
