When Back Pain Travels
Sciatica isn't a condition itself, but a symptom of an underlying problem—usually a "pinched nerve" in the lower back. It is characterized by pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg.
At Trinay Orthopedic Hospital, we focus on identifying exact level of compression to provide rapid relief and prevent long-term nerve damage. Your spine health is our priority.

Typical Symptoms
- Radiating Pain: Electric-like shocks from the buttock down to the calf.
- Numbness: Loss of sensation in specific parts of the leg or foot.
- Weakness: Difficulty lifting the foot (Foot Drop) or pushing off while walking.
Our Relief Protocols
Over 90% of sciatica cases resolve without major surgery. Our approach includes:
- Epidural Steroid Injections: Reducing inflammation directly at the nerve root.
- Nerve Gliding Exercises: Specialized physiotherapy to "floss" the nerve through tight spots.
- Core Stability: Building the "internal brace" to take pressure off the discs.
Time is Tissue
While many cases resolve with rest, persistent numbness or weakness is a sign that the nerve is being starved of blood flow. Early clinical intervention is the best way to ensure full recovery of nerve function.
