Sciatica
Sciatica is a common condition characterized by pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down through the hips, buttocks, and legs. At MyChiroPlus, we specialize in providing effective chiropractic care to address sciatica and its underlying causes. Our skilled chiropractors are dedicated to relieving pain, improving mobility, and enhancing your overall well-being.
Causes of Sciatica:
Sciatica can be caused by various factors, including:
Herniated Disc
When a disc in the lumbar spine herniates or bulges, it can press on the sciatic nerve roots, leading to sciatica symptoms.
Spinal Stenosis
Narrowing of the spinal canal, typically due to age-related degeneration, can put pressure on the sciatic nerve and cause discomfort.
Piriformis Syndrome
The piriformis muscle, located in the buttock region, can irritate or compress the sciatic nerve, resulting in sciatica symptoms.
Traumatic Injury
Accidents, falls, or injuries that impact the lower back or buttock area can lead to sciatica symptoms.
Poor Posture
Prolonged periods of sitting, slouching, or inadequate ergonomics can strain the lower back and contribute to pain and discomfort.
Symptoms of Sciatica:
Common symptoms associated with sciatica include:
Leg Pain
Sharp, shooting, or burning pain that radiates from the lower back through the buttocks and down the back of one leg.
Numbness or Tingling
Sensations of numbness, tingling, or pins and needles in the leg or foot.
Muscle Weakness
Weakness or difficulty moving the affected leg or foot.
Pain Aggravated by Certain Activities
Pain that worsens when sitting, standing for long periods, walking, or engaging in activities that put pressure on the sciatic nerve.
Radiating Pain
Pain that travels along the path of the sciatic nerve, which can extend to the calf, foot, or toes.

“The are many chiropractors in Puchong but Dr Nic from MyChiroPlus has always been an obvious choice for me. The difference between the chiropractors at this clinic than other clinics is they are young and they don’t assume they know more about your illness than you do. You will be treated and be involved in the treatment respectfully.
I have been bringing my father-in-law here for his shoulder treatment and my wife has been here a few times too. MyChiroPlus is my preferred chiropractor clinic in Puchong!”
