Are you experiencing numbness, pain, weakness, tingling, or burning sensations that extend from the lower back down one or both legs? If so, you may be suffering from sciatica. Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is compressed, inflamed, or irritated, with symptoms ranging from bearable to excruciating. Though some people’s symptoms improve over time, this is not always the case. If you are experiencing lower back pain, reach out to Premier Bone and Joint Centers. The spine doctors at our satellite clinic in Riverton, Wyoming, can evaluate your condition and develop a customized sciatica treatment plan.

How Does Sciatica Develop?

Oftentimes, sciatica is a result of the natural aging process. Over the course of a person’s life, the spine can be subjected to a great deal of stress, leading to:

• A herniated disc
• Degenerative disc disease
• Spinal narrowing (stenosis)
• Osteoarthritis

The sciatic nerve can become compressed by any of these conditions.
