Sciatic nerve pain

I've been having really bad sciatica pain for a month or so now. I've been to my chiro 4 times, he has helped the pain heaps but I'm still having the shooting pains when I sit down. He said at my last visit that he can't do anything else for me because my hips and back are fine so it would be a waste of money to go back again. I'm not sure what else to do because the pain is still there. Has anyone got any ideas on what else I could try? It's so painful and it really makes looking after my 2 kids hard ?

Highly recommend some exercises! When I get sciatica pain, i pull my knee up and across to other side of my body, this helps a lot

I am a wellness advocate for DoTerra, and I sale essential oils. We have an oil called deep blue. We also have it in a lotion. You can apply it to wherever you are in pain. If you have any questions just let me know. www.mydoterra.com/haleepowell

It's lower back pain that can happen when then sciatica nerve has been pinched or your back/hips are out. It shoots down into the bum, hips, legs and feet. It's really really painful ?

I was having bad back problems a couple years ago and had seen the chiro a few times. My back would feel good for a little while after she'd treat me then the pain would return. I ended up going to an osteopath once! He pin pointed my pain straight away and gave me a few gentle exercises to do at home to help treat (and prevent) more issues. Since then my back has never been anywhere near as bad.

I hope you get some relief soon as it's so frustrating trying to get stuff done when you're in pain.

I found some exercises/stretches on YouTube that really helped me with my sciatica. They worked an absolute treat and it's natural and of course free. Basically it's just some stretching...

I'm not pregnant, I had it really bad on pregnancy too. My youngest is 10 months old and it's back in full force ?

Thank you xx

No advice really, I had sciatic pain in both my pregnancies and it went away when I gave birth. My GP only really recommended rest and panadol, and a pregnancy pillow helped me sleep (I used to wake up in pain and have pain if I turned over). Hope it goes away soon.
