11Intensified pain when standing or sitting
If you have sciatica, then you might experience intensified pain when standing or sitting for an extended period. This is a slight ache or creakiness which often goes away as you move around or shift your body. Compared to usual pains, this symptom tends to be longer and stronger, especially when you change your position. Similarly, some people might get more pain when they sneeze or cough as well. [11]
