Sciatica pain, which is characterized by pain extending from the waist to the foot, causes the person to feel pulled from the hip to the heel. Different types of treatment are applied depending on the patient's complaints, general condition, severity of sciatica and why the sciatic nerve is suppressed. In some cases, analgesic drugs such as painkillers and muscle relaxants are used, while in others, methods such as epidural steroid injections may be used. In addition to physical therapy methods such as spinal manipulation and traction therapy applied by the physical therapy and rehabilitation department, surgical intervention may also be necessary for sciatica treatment.
What is Physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is the name given to the treatment of patients with electric current, heat or cold application, exercises or various waves to restore functional movements that are reduced due to injury, disease, trauma or old age. Doctors and physiotherapists work together in the relevant treatment centers. The aim of physiotherapy is to ensure that individuals fulfill vital factors in a healthy way. Physical therapy techniques which previously consisted of massage, traction and exercise have increased day by day and have given physiotherapists the authority to work in hospitals, medical centers, rehabilitation centers, orthopedic clinics and many other fields.
