Sciatica is a common problem that can result in pain, weakness and tingling of the leg. It is usually caused by a problem in the lower back or pelvis and the problem can then spread down the sciatic nerve into the buttocks, thighs, calf muscles and feet.
There are many symptoms of sciatica, although you do not neccessarily have to have back pain to experience sciatica. Many people who have a problem in their back have pain in the legs, without pain in their back.
