Sciatica is a condition that can hinder a person in their daily activities often leading to intense pain, weakness, tenderness or numbing down the leg, usually on one side. People may suffer with these symptoms for a long period of time, searching for a sciatica cure from medication to physical therapy. However depending on how bad the sciatica is and what it is caused from, there are different forms of treatment available. Whether or not there is a direct cure for sciatica is a different story. Many factors or conditions can lead to sciatica including tumors putting pressure on the sciatic nerve, spondylolisthesis (when one vertebra has slipped onto another vertebra), spinal stenosis (when there is a narrowing of the spinal canal), piriformis syndrome (when the piriformis muscle, deep in the hip joint, is so tight that it is choking the piriformis muscle), a slipped or herniated disk as well as conditions such as osteoporosis. Sciatica treatment that targets these causes as well as the pain that comes with sciatica may work as a sciatica cure, relieving you permanently of your pain. Treatment for sciatica that is directly for pain relief involves dealing with the inflamed sore or tender area. Painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs can be used as well as hot packs or ice packs. Temporarily resting the injured or hurt area may also help. If the pain is very bad, a cortisone injection may also be recommended. However these are often not thought of as a sciatica cure as it does not specifically address the cause of the pain. Dealing with the root of the problem and addressing it may involve a physician's diagnosis to ensure that treatment is carried out in the correct way. Often, if the sciatica is related to muscle or back problems, a physical therapist can be recommended along with treatment involving exercises and stretches. Exercises and stretches that target and strengthen the lower back muscles, the muscles around the hips as well as the muscles in the legs can greatly improve symptoms of sciatica by taking pressure off the damaged nerve. The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in the body, running from the bottom of the spine through the hip, knee and ankle. Because it is a nerve, the surrounding muscles have to be routinely exercised and strengthened for it to be a lasting sciatica cure. If sciatica pain does not let up, a physician may consider surgery as a way to physically repair the cause of this type of neuralgia. He may use surgery as a way to physically loosen the piriformis muscle, or to ease the narrowed spinal canal, or to remedy a herniated disk or physically lift a vertebra that has slipped on to another vertebra. While this may be the permanent sciatica cure that you are looking for, it is often the last resort. There have also been recommendations with regards to alternative medicine and herbal remedies


as a sciatica cure. Acupuncture has been recommended as a way to release pinched nerves and ease muscle tightness. Herbs like chamomile, turmeric, garlic and celery tea have also been said to work. Treatment for sciatica can often be a long and arduous process, involving dedication and motivation. However depending on the cause, treatment is possible for long term relief of the pain and discomfort that comes with sciatica. In this way, a sciatica cure is then possible.
