I need some advice on extreme Sciatica pain?!
Question: I need some advice on extreme Sciatica pain.?
About 3 weeks ago I started having the worst pain I have ever felt on my entire life shoot down from my left buttocks all the way to my left ankle. This will happen every time I move my body in a certain way. Standing up or getting up from bed causes excruciating pain that can only be imagined but never explained with words. When I'm laying down turning from side to side also causes this. Just one sharp shot lasting anywhere between 15 seconds and even an entire minute. No injury caused this.
My question is if anyone has experienced what I am going through what did you do to end this monstrous pain.? I am even willing to have my leg amputated (although I doubt it will come to that) than feel this any longer.Health Question & Answer

Answers:
Your sciatic nerve, a large one, comes out of the spinal column about ten inches above the tail bone (coccyx) it goes around the right side and through your buttocks. This nerve when pushed on, ty it, will send you up the wall.
You could have a slight infection like tendinitis or a damage to it from a pinch or bulge. The relief you can get would be through a pain clinic and a shot in the nerve to deaden it (caudal upper) see your doctor for a referral.Health Question & Answer

Your age could give different reasons. I have had similar pain, was advised to use Ibuprofen (you can use a lot of mg.)to relieve pain and reduce swelling that is probably there. It eventually went away. You should consult a doctor, get some tests to really determine what is going on.Health Question & Answer
