Sciatica is a painful condition caused by irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve, often resulting in pain that radiates from the lower back through the hip, buttock, and down one leg. It commonly develops after a car accident, workplace injury, or due to spinal disc damage. Without proper treatment, sciatica can become chronic and significantly limit mobility and quality of life. At Allied Neurology & Interventional Pain Practice, Dr. Dariusz Nasiek, MD, provides advanced, non-surgical sciatica treatment focused on lasting relief and full recovery.
Expert sciatica treatment after accidents and injuries
Sciatic nerve pain is often the result of underlying spinal trauma that may not be immediately obvious. Many patients experience worsening symptoms days or weeks after an accident as inflammation increases and nerve pressure builds. Dr. Nasiek provides comprehensive evaluations to identify the exact cause of sciatica and develop a personalized treatment plan to relieve pain and restore function.
What’s Causing My Pain?
Sciatica is typically a symptom of an underlying spinal condition causing irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. At Allied Neurology & Interventional Pain Practice, Dr. Nasiek commonly diagnoses and treats:
- Herniated or Bulging Discs: Displaced disc material pressing on spinal nerves
Solution: Physical therapy, epidural steroid injections, and minimally invasive procedures - Spinal Stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal, causing nerve compression
Solution: Image-guided injections, physical therapy, and surgical referral if needed - Degenerative Disc Disease: Age-related disc changes irritate nearby nerves
Solution: Regenerative therapies, targeted pain management, lifestyle adjustments - Spondylolisthesis: A slipped vertebra pinching nerve roots
Solution: Physical therapy, bracing, and minimally invasive surgical evaluation - Piriformis Syndrome: Muscle compression on the sciatic nerve outside the spine
Solution: Stretching programs, trigger point injections, guided physical therapy - Traumatic Injury: Accidents causing direct nerve irritation
Solution: Comprehensive rehabilitation, interventional pain therapies
