How does sciatica check

First: abnormal curvature: attention should be paid to whether there are spinal deformities, such as scoliosis. Scoliosis in patients with nerve root pain is mostly functional, which can be alleviated or disappeared in supine position. Kyphosis is commonly seen in vertebral compression fractures, while increased lordosis and disorder of spinous process often indicate spondylolisthesis. This is a common test for sciatica.

Second: spinal examination: tenderness point helps to identify the location and nature of the lesion, and is also a common examination method for sciatica. Taking lumbar disc herniation as an example, the tenderness points are mostly located near the spinous process in the intervertebral disc herniation space, which can radiate to the ipsilateral hip and lower limbs along the sciatic nerve. In addition, along the direction of the sciatic nerve can often find a clear tenderness point.

Third: we must pay attention to the relevant treatment when we check the neuralgia, so that we can live a healthier life. Experts will diagnose the pain according to the location and radiation direction of the pain, the factors that aggravate the pain, the pain reducing posture, the traction pain and tenderness points, and can only treat symptomatically after determining the cause.

Attention should be paid to this disease: all the data about the correct sitting posture show a unified standard, which does not mean that we have to follow the original model just like reading textbooks. This is just a reference standard for everyone. We should try our best to get close to this standard when we sit in our usual seats. The correct sitting posture should be straight upper body, abdomen, jaw slightly folded, legs together; to knee slightly higher than the waist is appropriate, because only in this way can make the back more straight, not easy to bend. When sitting in a seat with a seat back, you should try to keep your back close to the seat back on the basis of the above posture, so that the lumbosacral muscles will not be too tired.
