I have been suffering with sciatica since Jan 16th 2022, is it normal to last this long?

    Hello @Anita1957 and welcome to the community, it's lovely to see you join us and I hope you have had a nice morning. 


    Sorry to hear that you have been suffering with sciatica, according to this NHS page it normally gets better within four to six weeks however can last longer than this. If it is causing you concern I would advise contacting your GP about it.

    Afternoon @Anita195 welcome to our great group.
    Have you been to the doctors with your sciatica or had any advise on medication for it.
