My Sciatic Nerve
In the past month I have been experiencing a slightly annoying pain in the back of my right thigh. At first I didn’t think anything of it because it kinda felt as if I overstretched my hamstring, but after it persisted for while I mentioned it to someone at work and they said it could be my sciatic nerve.
Upon doing some research on it, I found that it’s probably just that. It’s not a strong pain, it’s more like a “growing” pain, or as I said before, feeling of an overstretched hamstring. A pain that only comes once in awhile and is very faint and easily shrugged off. As I read more into it it seems like something that maybe I should get checked out because it could progress to Sciatica.
The sciatic nerve can be irritated by a number of things, but mainly because of compressions in the lower spine. This could be my case and may stem from strain on my spine from heavy lifting at work, or doing dead-lifts with too much weight as I have done in the past to which the symptoms started soon after. I found a lot of good information here Spine-health.com.
