Our highly specialized, fellowship-trained interventional pain management physicians Dr. Wilson Almonte and Dr. Ted Lin at Victoria Pain & Rehabilitation Center in Victoria, TX, and Brazos Pain Management in Sugarland, TX, provide comprehensive medical services, including treatment for sciatica pain.
COMMON SCIATICA SIGNS & SYMPTOMS
- Pain on one side of your body
- Dull, aching, or sharp, stabbing pain
- A tingling feeling, or numbness
- Electric-shock, or pins and needles type of pain
- Pain that occurs in your lower back, buttocks, and one leg
Sciatica pain is caused by compression of the sciatic nerve. A herniated or damaged disk or bone spur can press on the sciatic nerve.

- Carry excess weight
- Sit for long periods of time
- Have age-related changes in your spine
- Repeatedly lift heavy objects
- Are diabetic and suffer from nerve pain
HOME REMEDIES FOR SCIATICA PAIN RELIEF
- Do gentle stretching exercises for your lower back and legs
- Take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory and pain medication
For moderate to severe sciatica pain, you should seek out help from your doctor. Professional treatments for sciatica may include:
- Minimally invasive lumbar epidural steroid injections to reduce inflammation
- Nerve blocks
- Spinal cord stimulation
