Sciatica is a painful condition which results from the narrowing of the spinal column. The compression of the spinal column can put pressure on one of the five regions of the sciatic nerve. Pain is generally felt in the lower back or lumbar region of the spine when nerves are pinched. Tingling in legs, back and neck can be some of the symptoms that are signs of sciatica. Sciatica is however a set of symptoms and not a diagnosis. Many different back conditions can be responsible for causing the symptoms associated with sciatica.

Some of the causes of sciatica include:

- Spinal disc herniation
- Spinal stenosis
