Compression of the sciatic 
            nerve can cause any of the above-cited symptoms. Rarely is nerve 
            damage permanent and paralysis is seldom a danger as the spinal cord 
            ends before the first lumbar vertebra. However, increasing trunk or 
            leg weakness, or bladder and/or bowel incontinence is an indication 
            of Cauda Equina Syndrome, a serious disorder requiring emergency 
            treatment.

              Usually sciatica affects one side of 
            the body. The pain may be dull, sharp, burning, or accompanied by 
            intermittent shocks of shooting pain beginning in the buttock 
            traveling downward into the back or side of the thigh and/or leg. 
            Sciatica then extends below the knee and may be felt in the feet. 
            Sometimes symptoms include tingling and numbness. Sitting and trying 
            to stand up may be painful and difficult. Coughing and sneezing can 
            intensify the pain.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/7358D07B-176A-4176-963A-F8A0F20098EC/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
