Sciatica is an issue many seniors ask me about, from what they can and can not do because of it, to how to get rid of it. Sciatica by definition is pain affecting the back, hip, or outer side of the leg, caused by compression of a spinal nerve root in the lower back, often owing to degeneration of an intervertebral disk. So herniated disks can be the culprit, or spinal stenosis which is the narrowing of the spine which compresses part of the nerve.
