The other day my dad went to the doctor for a pain in his leg. This pain concerned us greatly as he was unable to walk at times because it was so bad. The doctor told him he has sciatica. Exactly what is sciatica? I know it has something to do with the nerve that travels down your leg, but how do you get it and what do you do to stop the pain? His doctor has him scheduled with a physical therapist, but that isn’t for two weeks. We need to do something for him now. Thankfully the pain isn’t continuous, but it is horrendous whenever it does occur.
