Sciatica

Posts:29
 

I am almost 2 weeks post op. 2 days ago, I started having pain in my left buttock. The pain radiates down the back of my leg. I am used to working on my feet most of the day. I will be back to work in a couple of weeks. Any advice on how I can get rid of this? I've been taking ibuprofen and trying to walk as much as I can. Any help will be appreciated.

Find a good chiropractor, he can manipulate your left leg to stretch that nerve. Mine does the same thing and once it’s stretched you should be good for about a month. Let me know how you make out. Mmsh


 

figure 4 stretches helped me a lot when i had sciatica.
