Suggest Remedy For Sciatica Kind Of Nerve Pain

I'm 17 and I have found out that I have sciatica. My pain isn't so bad, I can still walk, and sleep, and occasionally jog but j can't do too much or I have a lot of pain. I stretch and everything. The doctor at the Urgent Care told me that it goes and comes again, but that when I get better I will be as good as new. My pain is still there, and it occasionally bothers me but I try to ignore it. Is it true? Will this ever go away?

Hello,

I have studied your case.
Usually nerve compression cant be seen on x ray you may need MRI for this.
If there is any nerve compression then that may need specific treatment.

I will advise you to do MRI spine
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.

Take care.
