COMMON SCIATICA SIGNS & SYMPTOMS

  • 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.
