It is a nerve pain that is caused by an injury or the irritation of the sciatic nerve which makes your legs work. In addition to the pain, tingling and numbness in the back or your buttocks may also run to your legs.
The Sciatica nerve is the longest and thickest nerve in our body. This nerve works more like a brain, it is a bundle of nerves that comes from the five nerves that come out of the spinal cord.
We have two sciatic nerves, one on each side of the body. Each nerve runs between the hip and buttocks on one side. They work each leg on one side of your body until it reaches below your knee.
Experiencing sciatica refers to mild to severe pain anywhere with nerves that connect to the sciatic nerve. The symptoms can affect your lower back, hips, buttocks or legs. Some symptoms may extend as far down as your feet and toes, depending on the specific nerves affected.
Symptoms of Sciatica may include:
Pain
Tingling
Numbness
Muscle Weakness
Urinary or faecal incontinence
Conditions that can cause Sciatica include:
Ruptured Disk

There are two types of sciatica. No matter what type you have, the effect is the same.
Doctors like to call both types collectively “sciatica.” The difference between them usually only matters once your doctor decides how to treat them.
Sciatica is a very painful condition. About 40 per cent of Americans experience some form of sciatica in their lifetime. This rarely occurs before age 20 unless associated with an injury.
Most cases go away within six weeks after symptoms appear. Sciatica that lasts for three months or longer usually indicates an injury. Still, sciatica rarely requires surgery.
Sciatica is pretty common but when it comes to both legs you start experiencing severe numbness and weakness or you start having numbness around your genitals.
The most common symptom of sciatica is a burning pain in the leg, hip, back, or foot. In the most severe cases, the pain can be so intense that it can cause paralysis, muscle weakness, or complete numbness, which occurs when nerves are pinched between bones and adjacent discs.
It is important to remember that although drinking water may help improve symptoms, it is not a cure for sciatica and should be used in conjunction with other treatments recommended by the doctor.
