Sciatica Treatment Norwalk, Fairfield County, CT

Sciatica is an extremely painful condition that causes low back pain and pain radiating down the back of the thigh and leg and into the foot. Sciatica is most commonly caused by pressure on the spinal nerves that are located in the low back. This pressure is often due to painful herniated, bulging or degenerated spinal discs.
