Is Sciatica Making It Hard to Sit, Walk, or Sleep?

Friday, September 18, 2026

If pain is shooting from your lower back through your buttock and down your leg — or you've got numbness, tingling, or a burning sensation that won't quit — that's sciatica, and it usually gets worse the longer you ignore it.

Here's what's actually happening: A nerve in your lower back is being irritated or compressed. Herniated discs, spinal degeneration, and narrowing around the nerve roots are common culprits. So are prolonged sitting, poor posture, and repetitive lifting.

The mistake most people make? They wait. They pop ibuprofen, hope it goes away, and by the time they call us, leg weakness has started, or they can barely get through a workday sitting at a desk.

At Village Family Clinic, we don't guess. We evaluate exactly what's driving your sciatica and build a plan around it — spinal adjustments, spinal decompression, soft-tissue work, and targeted exercises tailored to you.

If sciatica is interfering with your work, your sleep, or your ability to just walk around comfortably, don't wait for it to get worse.

Call or text Village Family Clinic at 908-813-8200 to schedule a consultation, or book online.
