Sciatica.: If she has back aches with leg radiations, it is likely she has sciatica. That is a pinching of a nerve in the back that causes corresponding back and leg pain. Typically, after the age of 40, most people will experience sciatica at least once in the life. If you are a heavy manual laborer, the incidence, and durations of the pain increases.
