Nice to meet you.

As you can see from the title, I have had pain in my leg for a year and have been feeling some discomfort, and for the past few months I have been unable to walk much because of the pain. I have been to various places such as massage, physical therapy, acupuncture, etc., but it has not gotten better.
Lately, I have difficulty sitting down and driving a car. Even when I go to bed, I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night.
It is difficult to go to the doctor in these days, and although I have insurance with Kaiser, I cannot go to the hospital.

I would like to know if there is any good place to go.
Thank you very much.

Hello.
Sciatica, that's hard, isn't it?
I suffered from it for several years.

First, you need to go to a doctor and find out what is causing your sciatica pain.
For example, lumbar spinal canal stenosis ・ lumbar disc herniation is a disease
and sciatica is a case of these.
However, if the cause cannot be determined after examination, sciatica seems to be the name of the disease.

In my case it was piriformis syndrome,
but it took about 3 months to find out.

I did daily back pain exercises that combined exercises to strengthen the muscles around my lower back and stretches to relax the muscles, and I also went to a chiropractor (which was covered by insurance) and recovered in about a year.

Pain and numbness are hard.
I hope you find a good remedy.

Good evening.

You say that you have been unable to walk in the last few months, but are your symptoms only in one leg ？ have they spread to both legs ？

and do you have urinary problems ？

your insurance is with Kaiser. So, I would recommend that you see a Kaiser-affiliated urgent care to determine if you need an MRI as soon as possible.

And my personal opinion is that you should not get physical therapy. The average doctor would not recommend their patients to go to physical therapy.
