Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does sciatica feel like?
Sciatica may cause shooting, burning or electric-like symptoms that travel from the lower back or buttock into the leg. Tingling, numbness or weakness can also occur.
2. Is sciatica the same as a slipped disc?
No. A slipped or herniated disc is one possible cause of sciatica. Sciatica describes the nerve-related symptoms.

Yes. Some people mainly experience buttock or leg symptoms with relatively little lower-back pain.
