Sciatica: can be treated in many ways depending on the cause. If there is irritation of the nerve or swelling of the tissues abutting the nerve or nerve roots steroids or NSAIDS can provide rapid relief. If muscle spasm is compressing the nerve antispasmodics can help. If you are not currently under the care of a doctor for this condition, go see somebody tonight.

HealthTapPrime(-TX?): The prescribing of meds through HealthTap can only be done through one-on-one evaluation on HealthTap Prime, our paid service.HealthTap Prime may or may not be available in Texas - I am uncertain.Meds that are impossible to prescribe through HealthTap Prime include controlled substances, such as narcotic pain meds. Back pain is best evaluated in person, IMO.Please get seen ASAP.Back pain is cruel.
