Causes Of Sciatica Pain
Sciatica pain often stems from irritation, compression, or dysfunction involving the sciatic nerve and the structures that support the lower back, hips, and legs. With help from the surrounding muscles, joints, and discs, the spine and pelvis protect the nerve and allow smooth movement throughout daily life—walking, sitting, bending, lifting, and exercising. But because this nerve travels from the lower back down through the hips and legs, it’s especially vulnerable to irritation when tissues become tight, restricted, or strained. Muscle tension, joint restriction, and nerve compression are among the issues we see most often.
Most sciatica-related problems develop from repetitive stress, poor posture, muscle tightness, or sudden strain. Activities like prolonged sitting, lifting improperly, repetitive bending, or awkward movements can all contribute to symptoms over time. Disc irritation, muscle compression (such as piriformis tightness), joint dysfunction, and nerve inflammation are some of the most common contributors to sciatica pain. You can learn more about sciatica, its causes, and treatment options in our sciatica blog.
Sciatica Pain Symptoms
Symptoms can vary depending on the cause of sciatica, but most cases create discomfort that affects sitting, standing, walking, and daily movement—especially with prolonged sitting, bending, or certain positions. Because the sciatic nerve runs from the lower back through the hips and down the leg, irritation is often easy to aggravate.
