This condition is an irritation or compression of one or more nerve roots in the lumbar spine (lower back). Because these nerves travel to the hips, buttocks, legs and feet, an injury in the lumbar spine can cause symptoms in these areas. Sciatica may result from a variety of problems with the bones and tissues of the lumbar spinal column.


Symptoms

  • Lower back pain

  • Pain along one leg

  • Ankle weakness

  • Numbness along the leg
