As above walking is really helpful for most things really. It's low impact, easy to do and promotes blood flow and healing
I've dealt with sciatica on and off for years following some bad back injuries. It's literally a pain in the arse
Try and find out what's causing it. A common cause is that if you have a job where you're sat a lot your hamstrings will be in a shortened position for extended periods of time, do when you get up and walk around you'll be tight, and that can cause muscle strains on the lower back |

Sorry to hear this , I had it once and was so severe , I couldn't move from the living room floor , there's nothing that's gonna help it unfortunately, I looked at YouTube videos , and was all exercises , yeah right , there was no chance, you just have to wait till the fluid builds back up, 2 weeks and I was walking , also the pain down my left leg was awfull, and the only thing that eased that was a stimulating device with the pads, that helped my leg not my back |

I suffer with sciatica quite badly in my right leg. Jarred my back a couple of weeks ago. Been in tears with the pain. Tried most painkillers. No touching it. Tried massage. That work for a few hours then it tighten up and back to square one. Even get pain in the never regions.. |

A massage will help. Yoga exercises and there are some u-tube videos on what positions you can sleep in to ease the pain. Avoid numbing injections as they only mask the problem rather than heal it. Good luck which ever way u choose to go |
