Understanding Sciatica- Everything you need to know about the causes and treatment of sciatica.

I tried running comrades marathon and my sciatic nerve stopped me 😢

Great video I've been doing it and the pain is in my butt, but the pain went away from my butt , but I can still feel it in my leg any suggestions

Thank-you. You really have detailed information. I'm suffering from pain in buttocks..

I must say thanks very much for your explanation it is what i have been looking for.I have been tryiing to getmuch explaination throughout the net and yours is the best thanks again

GODS BLESSING

Thank you much for this video! I was finally able to figure out that I've got issues with my piriformis and this is causing my intense sciatic pain. You're the first person ive come across who was able to give ACCURATE information with regards to diagnosis first. Ive wasted some much energy search and wondering if i had a prolapse or disk bulge, but using your technique was quickly able to tell that non of the spinal tests gave me a problem, however the spasmed piriformis was so painful when pressed. I all makes total sense now because for years, my left side gave problems and a few weeks agi i sleept with a pilow between my legs to ease the discomfort.... next morning the spasm jumo from left to right side and really impinged the sciatic. I freaked.... so bloody painful. Kept think my vertebrae were shot. Now i know it most probably some sirt of piriformis syndrome. The soft stretches along with plenty of aerobic exercises has just iver the last few days really made a difference. I cannot thank you enough...

Thank u, thank u, thank u! You are the very best . I had spasms in my hamstrings. It made my left leg to go into a spastic state like jello. Since doing all 3 stretches: the swinging one, the knee bend and the leg over knee and the gentle press, I am a new man! 🙏🏼🙏🏼😢

After 2 years of pain I’m extremely active person gym everyday , now I’ve started to get pins and needles down my left side right down my leg and weakness

Man..watching this hot physo is enough to fix whatever pain you suffering 🤣.
Thank you so much for this video.
I believed mine is causing by sitting too long at the desk, and this lower back pain from my right side of my leg is too stubborn to go away considering that
I am fit and stretch a lot. I need to continue to do all this exercise and hoping to find some comfort.
Thank you again 🙏

I’ve suffered this issue three times within the last 15 years. All sports related. (Golf, basketball). Physio pretty much provided the same at home exercise.

Great advice from this video. Especially explaining why this happens. If you’re suffering from this. Trust me things will get better.

🙏 thanks 👍

Thank you for this video. Most useful and explanatory especially the exercises and the caution about anti-inflammatory medication.

Thank you, have been to GP and physio, the standing in a block I think shows it's buttocks for me more than pirirformis, already knew it wasn't back. I think the standing leg exercise has helped most so far. Thank you.

Thanks!

This is extensively discussed. Many thanks!

God has answered my prayers. I have been suffering from this sciatica for now 2 weeks, but Jehovah has seen me through

Absolutely awesome info🤗🤩✌️

Thank you so much, really helpful !

Great video thank you. 🙏

Thanks so much for the valuable information! The best video I have watched on the topic with great details on the causes and treatments.

I'm suffering now at 36 but I just now discovered I have 2 extra vertebrates which I was born with. My medical insurance doesn't cover any back issues what would you suggest?

It’s like my upper glute attached to my upper hip bridge

You can't walk if your leg goes numb. That's when you fall.

I had operation on the right side and the left side has started thank you I will start the excuses soonest. Many thanks for the important information

9 Drinks to repair nerve damage

For the past two months, I have been suffering from sciatica nerve pain. I have watched many videos and sought various treatments, including visits to the doctor, emergency room, acupuncture, cupping, massage therapy, and physiotherapy. However, none of these explained sciatica as clearly as you did. This is the best video I have ever seen! Now, I am gradually recovering from sciatica. The shooting pain in my hip and leg has subsided to just less buttock and lower back pain, which were the initial symptoms before the sciatica developed. According to my doctor, based on the X-ray results, I have a reduced disc space at L5-S1, which is pinching the nerve. The most beneficial exercises for me have been hanging from a bar and doing the cobra position. I have watched several of your videos, found them very helpful, and have subscribed to your channel. Thank you for your videos!

This video is so helpful to me. what a such explain..

Brilliant.
This is how someone who graduated with an A average, focused on learning how to help, looks; in contrast to those many who graduated with a D average focused on making money.
He didn't even bother asking you to like or subscribe.

I have to teach my mentors about this topic God thanks brother 😅

Rahat,...am întrebat în limba Română 😂😂😂😂

Is he nuts? How can you swing your leg when you’re in pain?

Made my pain more worst!

I bent over to tie my shoe and had a sharp pain in my lower back/hip/upper butt area and shortly after that i had tons of debilitating pain in my butt/lower back and starting to go down my leg. A day later the pain isnt' really there, but my entire leg is numb, especially at the foot and calf. I have muscle weakness at the foot, i can't stand on my toes on the numb leg. Im pretty sure it's a glute muscle or piriformis or something pressing into the sciatic nerve. Has anyone had this or knows what to do? Im afraid of my leg being numb and weak forever.

Hi. Thanks for your video and the clear explanation. I wonder if you get any patients who are unable to hang from the bar due to pain. The only way I can hang from the bar is in a hollow hold position. If I just hang without engaging my stomach muscle the pain is excruciating (sciatic pain right down to my foot). Many thanks 🙏

Dear Ashley, thank you very much for your great, very informative video and your very clear understandable English. I am so happy I was able understand every word you are saying. I used to use every movement you have showed for a long time and I believe it kept me more or less fit in my 60+. I highly recommend your video to everyone who is fit and especially who experienced health problems related to muscles and nerves ❤ from Moscow with respect and gratitude

Thank you for this very clear video. I have anterolysthesis so cannot do flexion exercises. Can the sciatic nerve be compressed by si joint dysfunction? In other words, if the si joint is overstretched or out of alignment? Thank you so much!

what about bicycling, since there's less shock than from walking?

thanks for clear expanations. now I know its not the socket but the outer side part where the muscles connect.

I got sciatica pain mid-Oct of 22. Am on my 3rd bout of it. It starts on my right side, next to my buttcrack, slides across my buttcheeks, down my right thigh on the side (adds extra pain where my buttcheek and thigh meet), down to the right side of my kee, it will hug all around my knee before going down the right side of my calf into my 2 little toes. It's sharp, painful and feels like I'm being stabbed by lots of pins. Have several numb feeling places as well. Still can't fathom how something can itch, burn, be numb and supremely painful, all at the same time. Am taking 600mg Gabapentin and 750mg Methocarbomol every 12 hours. Have had to take half of the 600mg Gabapentin for really bad days (is usually in-between times, but not today, took it with my regular morning time frame) and this time I'm in tears with the pain. My foot and leg feels like it is freezing and therefore is making it hurt more. Have been told that my spinal canal is narrowing, that I have degenerative disks at L5 to S1, and (depending on who looks at it) a bulging disc or 2. I'm a school bus aide (lost my OTR truck driving job late Nov of 22) and have to walk up and down the aisle checking on the elementary kids while the bus is moving. I need to find a way to alleviate this, and be able to do it. Doctor told me to rest and relax, but I need to move or it gets worse, which also makes it worse...no win situation.

Hey spine doctor, got any suggestions? Can I get a nervectomy and get rid of it?

What about you are pregnant with food babies?

Fantastic presentation and deivery, thank you Ashley

You have explained so beautifully. I was able to locate that mine is coming from buttocks not from lower back, till today I was only taking care of my lower back and no attention to buttocks. Maybe this will have me. Thank you so much ❤

Does sciatica pain also lead to pain in the front thigh and groin region? I have had buttock pain and it shoots down upto my foot but also sometimes pains in my front thigh area and groin
