Sciatica Treatments
Sciatica in Amarillo, Tx
Patients often describe sciatic pain as a range of slight discomfort to extreme and unbearable. Sciatic pain can manifest in different areas of the legs and feet and has a tendency to come and go. As years progress, people tend to go through sciatica flare ups that intensify over time as the problem goes largely unchecked.
The areas generally regarded as the root of sciatic pain are the pelvic and lumbar spine. This spinal area is very complex and can make it difficult to find the root of the problem. Dr. Kaci Roach will be able to work with you to improve the positioning of your spine and discs to help alleviate some of the worst of the pain.
Many patients claim that all they did was bend over to pick up something small and be suddenly hit with extreme pain. It’s hard to understand what was happening as an underlying issue for likely a longer period of time. The stark reality is that the condition has likely been underlying for years. Most spinal problems don’t just happen overnight, but build up gradually as a number of small, but related injuries.
