Asked for Female, 30

I have tingling in my legs starting from the back trough the buttocks continuing down to the legs. I was doing exercises stretching as forward fold and split recently. Pain started more than two weeks ago

Answered on 23rd May '24

Hello.

The way you explained your symptoms is very typical of Sciatica.

I happens when the soft disc in between the two spine bone get compressed while lifting something leading to it's backward protrusion where the nerve supplying your leg lies. This cause a severe radiating pain from back to buttock.

Usually with few days of complete bed rest it recovers on its own. However if it persisted for more than one week it's a red flag and needs a spine specialist consultation.

You might be suffering from cervical Spondylosis.

it's a condition where the soft disc in between the two bones of spine gets degenerated and prolapsed leading to compression of nerve

Presence of red flags like weakness of Upper limb or lower limb, unsteady gait, Urine or stool symptoms will need an emergency Spine Specialist Consultant.

If no red flags then it can be very well managed with conservative treatment after a thorough clinical and radiological assesment by your Spine Specialist.

रीढ़ की हड्डी में नस दबना, रोड की हड्डी में पाए जाने वाले डिस्क के फटने के कारण होता है। नस पे दबाव के कारण पैरो में दर्द होना, पैरो में काकोरी आना या पैर सुन हो जाने जैसे लक्षण सामान्य है। इस इलाज होने वाले तकलीफों पे निर्भर करता है अगर दर्द सिर्फ पैरो पे है पर कोई कमजोरी नहीं है तो इसका इलाज आराम करके किया जा सकता है। अगर दर्द फिर भी काम न हो तो फिजियो या इंजेक्शन से दर्द कम किया सकता है। ९५% लोगो में यह दर्द अपने आप चला जाता है। कुछ लोगो में इससे ठीक करने के लिए surgey भी की जाती है। पर यह सब का इलाज किसी spine specialist के परामर्श पे ही करे।
