chemical that is irritating and results into nerve inflammation and pain.
Lumbar spinal stenosis: This is a nerve compression disorder that’s mostly
common with older people and results into the narrowing of the spinal canal.
The condition may be caused by the overgrowth of soft tissue or a bulging
disc that exerts pressure on the nerve roots resulting into sciatica.
Piriformis syndrome: This condition occurs when the piriformis muscle, a
small muscle that’s found deep in the buttocks tightens. It can exert pressure
and irritate the sciatic nerve resulting into pain.
Isthmic spondylolisthesis: This condition is caused by a slip of one vertebra
resulting in misalignment. When there’s fracture or disc space collapse,
where one vertebral body slips over the one below due to fracture on the bone
connecting the two joints, the root nerve can easily get triggered and cause
sciatica. The fracture can be caused by stress on the bone.
