When a person's sciatic nerve is damaged, a group of symptoms, such as tingling and numbness in the legs and pain in the back may occur. The amount of pain associated with sciatic nerve damage can vary greatly from person to person. Some people may only feel a small amount of discomfort while others are in such great pain that they cannot move.

The pain and tingling can be caused by a number of problems, most of which can be treated by a chiropractor or with massage therapy, which provides a medication-free option for pain management. A common cause of sciatica is a slipped disc, which means a spinal disc has moved out of its proper position and is putting pressure on the nearby nerves. Sciatic pain can also occur after an injury to the pelvis or as a result of piriformis syndrome, which affects the muscle in the buttocks area.
