Why choose us for Sciatica and Back Pain Treatment in Delhi
Sciatica is radiating leg pain caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve roots (often L4–S1). Common causes include a herniated (“slipped”) disc, spinal stenosis, or inflammation around the nerve. Mechanical low back pain can arise from discs, facet joints, muscles, or sacroiliac joints.
Most patients improve with a structured, conservative plan. If pain persists or there are neurological deficits, targeted injections or minimally invasive surgery may be advised.
Symptoms & Red Flags
Typical symptoms
Back pain, buttock pain, radiating leg pain, numbness/tingling, weakness, worse with sitting/coughing.
Mechanical back pain
Aches with bending/twisting or prolonged standing; stiffness in the morning.
Red flags (urgent)
New bladder/bowel loss, saddle numbness, rapidly worsening weakness, fever, cancer history, significant trauma—seek urgent care.
Evaluation & Diagnosis
- Clinical exam: Nerve tension tests, strength, reflexes, and gait.
- Imaging: X‑rays for alignment; MRI for discs/nerve roots; CT selectively.
- Risk review: Work, sport, posture, prior episodes, comorbidities.
- Diagnostic injections: Selective nerve/facet/SIJ blocks when needed.
A clear diagnosis guides the right balance of conservative care vs intervention.
