A member asked:

I had an acute sciatica episode which resolved after 2 weeks. i have no symptoms whatsoever except mild numbness on the top of my foot. is that common after a flare up and how long it lasts?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. Persistent numbness indicates nerve damage. It would be prudent to see your doctor. Wish you good health!
