Sciatica really means inflammation of the sciatic nerve. The cause is the real issue. From a medical model perspective If the pain is purely from chemical inflammation the sciatica will settle as the inflammation goes down. If it is from a compression then it may not fully settle until the compression resolves. This can take some time but the stats show almost as good a result with and without surgery for disc herniation as the body over time will reabsorb the area affected. There are exceptions and you should always have an examination with a doctor or physiotherapist to rule out any serious complications. The aim of neural mobilization exercises is to keep the fluid in the nerve still moving to keep it healthy and reduce the build up of noxious chemicals. Its almost like comparing a stream to a stangnant pond. Less build up = less pain. If you want to know more abour neural glide exercises and other ways to help then we striongly advise seeking a physiotherapists opinion as too much can cause a flare. The exercises have to be done quite specifically to work so you really need to be taught them. Sciatica is not a simple matter. Sciatica really means inflammation of the sciatic nerve.
