What Causes Lower Back and Leg Pain?
Why do I have pain in my lower back and leg?
Back and leg pain can arise from various causes, such as a herniated disc, muscle strain, or irritation of the sciatic nerve. Poor posture, heavy lifting, or prolonged sitting can also contribute to this discomfort.
What is the sciatic nerve, and how does it cause pain?
The sciatic nerve is the longest nerve in the body, running from the lower back down to the legs. Pressure on this nerve can lead to sciatica, characterized by pain that starts in the lower back and travels down the leg.
