Sciatica is a form of acute pain felt in because of the compression of the sciatic nerve or the associated nerves. It is experienced by all kinds of people and by people of all ages. Sciatica pains are of different types, depending on the origin of the the disease- i use the term for want of a better word. The symptoms are caused by a host of factors, prominently among them being the herniated discs,piriformis muscle compression, trigger points, narrowing of spinal canal, pregnancy and a host of other factors including non uniform habits during working hours including prolonged hours of putting pressure on specific parts of the human body. The origin of the syndrome affects the diagnosis procedures and the time taken to be cured completely.

The most serious case of Sciatica is the one due to the herniation of the disc or lumbar bulging. In this case, the disorder arises due to the breakage of the wall surrounding the disc in our lower part of the body resulting in the breach of the protective walls by the nucleus held inside. As a result, the bulging disc compresses against adjacent nerves which in turn compresses the sciatic nerves or their associated nerves and cause sciatica. In this case, the cure cannot be completely natural, though opinions differ. The characteristics are extreme numbness and tingling leading to muscle weakness. In this case, the treatment has to be one prescribed by a doctor and he will examine the cause, confirm it and take appropriate measures to remove the pain.

Another important cause is the piriformis muscle compression. Here, the sciatic nerve which lies inside, or rather, beneath the piriformis nerve is the affected party. This happens because of the pressure put on it by the piriformis nerve that lies or surrounds it. When this muscle cramps due to overuse or when undue pressure is built upon it, the sciatic nerve beneath it takes the pressure. As a result, sciatica pains are felt by the body. The treatments for this type of cause is, as is obvious, the relaxation of the human body, especially during times of pain. One needs to perform regular special sciatic exercises that help in relieving the pressure on the piriformis nerve. If this treatment or exercise are regularly followed, then it is possible to resolve the pain in some time. It is not so serious and in many cases, the pain goes off naturally with the body developing a corrective mechanism by itself.
