Sciatica is nerve pain down the leg from a compressed or inflamed nerve in the back. Similarly, arm pain can arise from the neck. It can be associated with signs of nerve damage such as numbness or weakness. It is most commonly due to a disc herniation but can be due to degeneration or occasionally a more serious spinal problem. Nerve pain needs specific treatment depending on the diagnosis and can include injections or surgery. It is important that nerve pain be diagnosed promptly and correctly so that the right treatment can be started quickly to avoid long term problems.
Back pain is the most common cause of disability but is often poorly understood and treated. It is usually not serious and settles quickly but can sometimes be due to a more significant underlying problem and go on for many months. It is important to carefully assess the problem with a history and physical examination and in many cases, a scan. Once the condition is diagnosed, an appropriate comprehensive treatment plan can be developed in order to improve the pain and restore function as quickly as possible. Neck pain is less common but benefits from the same co-ordinated approach.
