[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sciatica -- started in pregnancy, seemed to get better, then got much worse and I got to the point where I thought I'd have to live with it forever. Then I got a new ortho (Centers for Advanced Orthopedics in DC, if you are looking) and saw their in-house PT. My doctor put me on an anti-inflammatory instead of pain medication (Celebrex) and the PT started working on opening up space in my hips for the nerves. I was super skeptical but it worked and now I don't even need the anti-inflammatories. I do think about inflammation when it comes to my diet now, and avoid certain foods -- I don't know if it helps but it can't hurt. I have flare ups now and again but I can generally address with PT.[/quote] Wow thanks for sharing, not OP but I developed sciatica with pregnancy too and it’s persisted with flare ups and continued pain if I’m in the wrong position for too long. I thought it was related to aging. Will look into PT again.[/quote]
