...been there done that (sciatica) first thing ya got to do is give up golf. At least for awhile. There isn't a golfer on this planet who does not have back trouble sooner or later. Now that I told ya that Im gonna tell ya how to heal it up without surgery or drugs.

...first get yourself some Horse Liniment for humans.

This kind. If ya use regular everyday full strength horse liniment it will take your skin off.

Have the wife put it on your back (wearing a glove ya don't want it on your hands.

...next, get a body pillow. When ya go to bed at night have the wife shove the pillow up against your back where it will hold it with a little pressure and in a comfortable position. Sleep that way for the next six months.

...fixed mine and the doctors wanted to committ surgery on me and put a piece of crap in my back that woulda made a great boat anchor.

He is with me every day now.

In fact, every step I take.

We are very close.

How close you ask?

Christ Mathews close! I get a tingling sensation running up and down my leg....

My friend's name is sciatica.
Left leg.

Now I have matched pair of shooting pain in both legs. Right leg from the low back spinal surgery and the left one now from sciatica.

Getting older is not much fun. Of course, compared to ribit, DG and Snaperoo, I guess I could be compared to a spring chicken, or maybe not....

But, I can say that at least I know what I am supposed to do to get this to heal up and go away.

It is very painful as it flares up and every step you take is excruciating. So it ain't much fun.

I am performing an unscientific study right now in medications.

Real brand name ADVIL versus generic Ibuprofen.

I tried the generic stuff for a week with NO help.

This morning I bought a bottle of the real thing and am trying it to see if there is any difference.

I did get some relief from the real stuff. Lasted a few hours. But I had to take three.

My wife wants me to try arthritis back formula in Bayer Aspirin and see if that will relieve the inflamed sciatica nerve. Right now, I'll try anything.

Anybody else have this???? Did you get rid of it and how???

I can hardly walk 50 steps on a floor before I can't hardly stand the stabbing, burning sensation running from low back, through my backside and down my leg and through the knee.

I am open for suggestions.... Never had this before until now....

Thanks for any helpful ideas. I am confident we have plenty of other kinds of ideas.....Laughing
