8Weakness in lower limbs
Having sciatica might make it challenging to move around and do some activities requiring your feet. This is often a result of the inflammation or damage of the nerves in your lower back. Weakness and numbness can occur to both legs, even though many people would also experience this issue in one limb. Thus, it is recommended to move or walk slowly when you experience sciatica to prevent aggravating the symptom. If it gets worse over time, then you might need surgery to avoid permanent damages to the nerves. Fortunately, most people would completely recover from this condition and resume their lives quickly.
