Sciatica: This is characteristic of sciatica, the longest nerve in our body. Usually vs bulging intervertebral disc pressing on a nerve root in the lower spine causes the pain. Many cases resolve without surgery but may take weeks. A neurologist could evaluate you and order appropriate tests. Taking anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen, muscle relaxants, physical therapy may help.
