Edison, NJ -- (SBWire) -- 10/21/2016 --The Freeman Spine and Pain Institute offers advanced treatment for patients who suffer from mild to severe back, joint and spine pain. One of the most common pain conditions is sciatica - but it is also a highly treatable one. Patients suffering from sciatica can turn to the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute for a variety of treatment options as well as recovery plans to prevent worsening or future pain.
Sciatica is a common condition experienced by millions of Americans per year. Characterized by pain, tingling or numbness in the lower back, buttocks and legs, it affects the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back down both legs. Injury, compression or entrapment of the lumbar nerves is among the most common causes of sciatica; this compromisation of the nerve can occur due to herniated discs, degenerative joint disease, trauma, muscle spasms, degenerative disc disease or tightness of the piriformis muscle.
The severity of sciatica symptoms varies on a case-by-case basis, but the condition is universally uncomfortable if not severely painful. Mild to moderate cases of sciatica are easily treated with rest, ice and medication combined with physical therapy that gradually restores the patient to full physical activity. In the severest cases of sciatica, however, surgery may be necessary.
The Freeman Spine and Pain Institute's physicians are committed to offering compassionate, comprehensive care that is at once cutting-edge and minimally invasive. Patients who are suffering any symptoms of sciatica are encouraged to schedule a consultation as soon as possible in order to correctly diagnose their problem and create a treatment plan. Not only does the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute treat the condition, but their doctors will also recommend exercises and lifestyle habits that prevent the recurrence of sciatica.
Pain does not have to be a way of life - and no one knows it better than the Freeman Spine and Pain Institute. Start the journey to being pain-free by calling them at 1-877-710-9324.
