What Is Sciatica and How Do You Treat It?
Sciatica is the name of an unbearably painful spinal condition that is caused when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated. Disc herniation, the sudden twisting of the spin, inflammation, excess heavily lifting, and natural aging have all been known to cause this condition. Sciatica has been known to respond well to pain medication, spinal cortisone injections, and physical therapy.
An epidural injection is something that would be recommended as a temporary treatment to reduce inflammation and to decrease the amount of pain an individual is suffering from. It is a fast acting anesthetic that is injected directly into your spine. It is not uncommon for this to be recommended to people who suffer from lower back pain or people who suffer from sciatica
What Is Disc Herniation?
Disc herniation is more commonly referred to as slipping or rupturing a disc in your spinal cord. It is a very common cause of neck pain and lower back pain. It is common for a person with this condition to experience a lot of sharp pains followed by numbness in their neck and their lower back. They can also feel weakness and pain in the legs and arms. Once you are diagnosed with a disc herniation you will be treated using physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medication, and epidural steroid injections.
Just because you suffer from a spinal injury, it does not mean you absolutely have to have a surgical procedure to fix it. Just make sure you slow down a little and explore your options before you agree to surgery. Get in touch with doctor Darryl D Robinson for more details!
