I have been having problems running due to a lower back/upper buttock pain. I assume it's sciatica, or at least that's what people I talk with think it is most likely.
Any kind of lateral movement - jumping jacks/slides (as if playing defense in basketball) - is when it is the most pronounced. Sneezing and coughing also isolate it and cause pain.
I was wondering if anyone had something similar and what kind of treatment/time off is best. Thanks for any help.
