Cold feet: Can happen with sciatica but must also think about peripheral vascular disease and disorders involving sympathetic nerves etc if it persists.

Common, Not Normal: Patients often share altered sensations such cold extremities with low back pain and sciatica. It would also be a good idea to be evaluated for vascular issues in the leg.
