Navigating Sciatica: Your Questions Answered
Dealing with health issues, regardless of their nature, often leads to a myriad of questions and concerns. Understanding the root causes, the symptoms, and most crucially, the effective treatment options can sometimes feel overwhelming. Recognizing the need for clarity and guidance, we’ve assembled a list of frequently asked questions tailored to address common health conditions for the people of San Diego.
Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain originating in the lower back or buttock, radiating along the path of the sciatic nerve—down the legs and sometimes reaching the feet. It’s not a standalone condition but rather a symptom of an underlying problem affecting the nerve, such as a lumbar herniated disc, bone spur on the spine, or spinal stenosis. Sciatica’s defining attribute is the singular nerve it affects, making its symptoms distinctively localized yet profound.
If you are suffering from sciatica and are located in the San Diego, CA area, we urge you to book a consultation with our incredible staff. At your consultation, we will dive into the root cause of your symptoms, develop a results-based action plan, and assist you on your journey to a happier, healthier, and pain-free life.
Symptoms of sciatica typically revolve around pain and discomfort along the sciatic nerve pathway. This might manifest as a mild ache, a burning sensation, or even a sharp, excruciating pain. Some patients describe the sensation as akin to electric shocks. Besides pain, other common symptoms include numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness in the affected leg or foot. Symptoms usually only affect one side of the body and can intensify after prolonged sitting or sudden movements.

For sciatica patients at Weng’s Acupuncture & Herbs Clinic in San Diego, CA, we usually suggest a blend of TCM treatments tailored to their unique situation. Acupuncture is pivotal; by targeting specific points along the meridians, it helps alleviate pain and inflammation associated with sciatic nerve compression. Herbal formulations may be prescribed to strengthen the back, reduce inflammation, and support nerve health. Tui Na massage provides relaxation, improved circulation, and increased flexibility. Additionally, we might provide guidelines on exercises and lifestyle changes to further the healing process and prevent future flare-ups.
