Sciatica & Radiculopathy Care
A pinched nerve or shooting leg pain can throw off your whole day, from getting out of bed to sitting through a workday. We take time to find out where that pain is truly coming from, then build a treatment plan around it, without rushing to surgery.
Understanding the Cause
Sciatica and radiculopathy rarely come from just one place. Symptoms can look similar on the surface while the cause underneath is completely different, which is why finding that source matters so much for real sciatica pain relief in Newark, NJ.
When a disc shifts and presses on a nearby nerve root, it can send pain, tingling, or weakness running down the leg.
When the spinal canal gets narrow, the nerves that run through it get squished together. This is what causes the shooting pain that is typical of lumbar radiculopathy.
Inflamed joints along the spine can refer pain into the hip and leg, and it’s easy to mistake it for classic sciatica.
Everyday wear on the spine can slowly shrink the space around nerve roots, adding to nagging leg and lower back pain over time.
Treatment Options
When rest, stretching, and basic care haven’t moved the needle, we turn to more targeted, non-surgical procedures aimed straight at the source of the pain.
We deliver anti-inflammatory medication right to the irritated nerve root to help calm the swelling behind sciatic pain.
