Sciatica Relief in Green Hills, Nashville TN
Sciatica is the sharp, burning, or tingling pain that starts in the lower back and radiates through the hip and down the leg - sometimes all the way to the foot. It rarely comes from one big injury; more often it builds gradually from everyday habits like prolonged sitting, poor lifting form, or sleeping in positions that quietly irritate the sciatic nerve.
Treating Sciatica in Green Hills
Sciatica pain has a way of showing up far from where it starts, radiating from the lower spine all the way to the foot in a clear, traceable pattern along the sciatic nerve. Identifying exactly where that nerve is being compressed - rather than just treating the leg pain - is central to how Dr. Wesley Stewart has approached sciatica care for 29 years across Middle Tennessee, including Nashville.
Patients from Green Hills - the shopping and dining district anchored by Green Hills Mall along Hillsboro Pike - often describe sciatica flaring after standing on hard retail floors or sitting through heavy Hillsboro Pike traffic.
