Sciatica
Like most other conditions, sciatica has a wide variety of causes, but an unhealthy spine with a protuded or ruptured disc can irritate the sciatic nerve causing sciatica. Sciatica has been reported following accidents, injuries and even childbirth. However, advanced diabetes can also cause sciatic nerve irritation, as can arthritis, constipation, tumours and even vitamin dificiences.
Your chiropractor corrects the vertebral subluxation complex which causes poor spinal alignment and nerve pressure. By doing this your chiropractor relieves stress on the spinal nerves, joints and discs. Just as you get your car's alignment checked and corrected, you should periodically get your spine's alignment checked and corrected.
