Sciatica refers to pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which branches from the lower back through the hips and down each leg. It is most commonly caused by a herniated lumbar disc or spinal stenosis compressing the nerve roots. Symptoms include sharp, burning, or shooting pain in one leg, sometimes accompanied by numbness, tingling, or muscle weakness. Dr. Dhruv Chaturvedi, a leading neurosurgeon and spine specialist, focuses on identifying the underlying cause of sciatica through clinical evaluation and imaging studies like MRI. His treatment philosophy combines conservative care with interventional techniques. Initial management includes rest, anti-inflammatory medications, physiotherapy, and postural training. For persistent or severe pain, Dr. Chaturvedi may recommend epidural steroid injections or nerve root blocks to provide targeted relief. In cases where nerve compression is severe or non-responsive to conservative therapy, surgical decompression or microdiscectomy may be required. Dr. Chaturvedi’s expertise in minimally invasive spine surgery ensures quicker recovery and excellent outcomes. Through precise diagnosis and a tailored approach, Dr. Dhruv Chaturvedi helps patients overcome sciatica and return to their daily activities with reduced pain and improved mobility.
