It is different from a back pain; leg pain that results from a pinching nerve in the lower back. The pinched nerve is the sciatic nerves that come out of the spinal column down through the back of hip joint to the buttock and then down from the back of the leg to the foot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symptoms of Sciatica Pain<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19438\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/health\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/Sciatica-Pain-1.jpg\" alt=\"Young woman is having back pain.\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/Sciatica-Pain-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/Sciatica-Pain-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>People think of it as any other back pain because usually the pain starts in the nerve roots that are located on the either side of the lower spine. The pain is usually felt in one leg and that is intolerable. A shooting pain feels like an electric shock, or a burning sensation. Some people feel pain along with numbness in some part of the same leg. People describe it as a pain that starts from one side of the lower spine, goes down to buttock, and down to the leg. Some describe it as a hip pain and foot pain, which is hard to bear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sciatica Causes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19445\" src=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/health\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/back-pain.jpg\" alt=\"woman with pain in back\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/back-pain.jpg 600w, https:\/\/drprem.com\/globalhealthcare\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/17\/2015\/10\/back-pain-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you know by now that irritation of the sciatic nerve is the reason behind excruciating sciatica pain and now it is time, you learn the causes that lead to the irritation in the nerve.
