A member asked:
I have a 5cm cyst on my left ovary and have now started feeling shooting pains in my legs with numbness. can the cyst aggravate my sciatic nerve?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: only if this represents an invasive process like endometriosis. the sciatic nerve is protected by the sacrum and peritoneal lining. more likely and back issue.
