See a therapist: for physical therapy. Sounds like you are already seeing a pain doctor, and getting nerve blocks. Your doctor may add other medications to improve your pain management. The therapist can teach you better biomechanics and prescribe exercises to help decrease pain, and improve range of motion..

Weeks to Months: Generally most people can get relief from sciatic pain doing the conservative care within 3-6 weeks. If it persists after that, it can take up to 6 months to heal by itself. You may still be a candidate for epidural steroid injections that may help relieve the pain while your body heals itself.
