A member asked:
Why am i experiencing leg pain when sitting on toilet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nerve compression: Although there are several possible causes, if the pain is in the back of the leg (and maybe even down the leg into the foot), it is possible that the sciatic nerveis getting compressed by the toilet seat in the region of your buttock. See your doctor to rule out other causes.
