Siatica Symptoms |
Siatica pain varies in individuals depending upon the cause. But one
must be aware of the minor symptoms of sciatica as they have the
potential to grow into bigger problems. The most common siatic pain
is the back pain which usually accompanies all the other pains. This
usually begins when the main siatic nerve is compressed or
irritated. Within this central nerve are nerve roots that branch out
into the lower part of the body. Some of the most common sciatic
symptoms are:
A)Buttock siatica symptom
The area below the main head of the siatic nerve is most likely to
be affected with even the slightest irritation to the main siatic
nerve. This is usually the case where sciatic pain is the result of
age related factors.
B)A cramping sensation of the thigh
The siatic nerve extends through the back of the thigh in its route.
Muscle spasms and low blood circulation may produce cramping
sensations in this area which is one of the most popular symptoms of
sciatica. Siatic pain in the legs is even worse that the back pain.
C)Shooting pains from the buttock, down the leg
The starting point of the sciatic nerve is the spine in the lower
back from where it extends through the back of the legs to the feet.
Another symptom of siatica is when you experience pain in irregular
bursts from the buttock down the leg.
D) Tingling, or pins-and-needles sensations in the legs and
thighs
A numbness type sensation is felt in the legs and thighs. Again
this may be due to the irritation of the main nerve which affects
these body parts in this way
E) A burning sensation in the thigh
A sense of burning in the back of the thigh could also be caused
by compression of the sciatic nerve. This heated sensation is a form
of siatic pain.
