 The most common symptom from sciatica is pain. Most people describe a deep, severe pain that starts low on one side of the back and then shoots down the buttock and the leg with certain movements.You may also notice a weakness in your leg or foot, along with the pain. The weakness may become so bad you can't move your foot.

Others suggest you sleep on the floor or put a board under your mattress for support. Some will tell you to use heat, others cold.
