My sciatic nerve has been hurting all day 😣😣😣 I'm over it ...

I'm right there with you... about to have my husband help me stretch mine out! It sometimes wakes me up in the middle of the night! 👎

What does he do? So I can tell mine bc I'm to the point where I wanna cry @dreamermom

Mine bothers me, and I'm not pregnant. But ever since I had my son its just horrible. 😣😣 I feel your pain.

Massage near the lower back and side of the hips to loosen it. Your SO can use a tennis ball too

Smh it sucks @klynne2616 okay, lol about to get him on that now !!!!@charong

@mommytobre, well it's really hard to describe... it's a stretch my chiropractor taught him... Basically, you have to lay on your back put your ankle on your other knee... so your legs are like a '4' then he grabs my ankle and knee of the bent leg, and gently brings them up toward my belly, until I feel the stretch in the right place... you kind of have to bring your knee in toward your core a little... and sometimes I have to have him push more on my ankle than knee to get it just right... you have to do it very slow and carefully (because of the relaxin in your body, you can hurt yourself easier)... just until you just feel the start of a stretch... then I have him hold and then a tiny bit more pressure... and hold for about 30-60 seconds, then repeat more pressure then hold, for like 2-3 minutes... then we do the other side... my husband says it gives him more of a work out than me! If you have a flat surface that's about halfway up your thigh... like the arm of a couch or sturdy table... you can do it yourself, stand facing it, bend your leg to the '4' position and then rest the bent leg on the arm of the couch... and bend the knee of your lower leg and bend forward a little until you feel the stretch... again, slowly, until you JUST feel it, hold it, until it stops feeling like it's stretching and go a little more and hold again... then do the other side! Hope that helps and makes sense! 😅

Makes perfect sense , I'm on my way home now so we can try this lol @dreamermom

Thank you!!!

@mommytobre, you are welcome! I hope it helps! My chiropractor is amazing... he teaches my husband all sorts of little things to help ease my pain... then I don't have to be miserable, or pay to see him weekly!
