Pain from sciatica in leg
9 Answers
Further to my earlier question, I hurt my leg 6 weeks ago and doc told me to take painkillers and anti inflammitory pills. I have also had 2 sessions with chiro and go again next week. Its �45 per session so cannot have too many. Should I be feeling better by now? Its still painful during the day but is usually better when i rest it. Standing can be agony and it is also sore when i walk. I need to take exercise and wonder if I need to see doc again? Do i need an Xray to check it out? All advice gratefully received.

I had injections at the pain clinic into my disc area, these helped it for a while but the pain recurred. The one thing that cured me for the past six years and I'm still ok was accupuncture. I had a course of three sessions and the problem went away completely. Good luck lyn.
