UNDERSTAND SCIATICA AND SUGGESTED TREATMENT OPTIONS:

Sciatica is a condition characterized by pain that radiates along the path of the sciatic nerve, which extends from the lower back through the hips and buttocks and down each leg. It’s also know as sciatic neuritis. Typically, sciatica affects only one side of the body.

Causes
Sciatica most often occurs when a herniated disk, bone spur on the spine, or narrowing of the spine (spinal stenosis) compresses part of the nerve.This can cause inflammation, pain, and often some numbness in the affected leg.

Symptoms
Common symptoms of sciatica include:
1. Lower back pain
2. Pain in the buttock or leg, especially when sitting
3. Hip pain
4 vBurning or tingling down the leg
5. Weakness, numbness, or difficulty moving the leg or foot
6. A constant pain on one side of the rear
7. Shooting pain that makes it difficult to stand up

Risk Factors
Several factors can increase the risk of sciatica, including:

Age:
Age-related changes in the spine, such as herniated disks and bone spurs, are the most common causes.

Obesity:
Excess body weight increases stress on the spine.

Occupation:
Jobs that require twisting the back, carrying heavy loads, or driving for long periods might play a role in sciatica.

Prolonged sitting:
People who sit for prolonged periods or have a sedentary lifestyle are more likely to develop sciatica.

Diabetes:
This condition, which affects the way the body uses blood sugar, increases the risk of nerve damage.

Diagnosis
Diagnosis typically involves a physical exam and may include imaging tests such as X-rays, MRI, or CT scans to determine the cause of sciatica.

Treatment:
Medications:
Pain relievers, anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxants, and sometimes, antidepressants or anticonvulsant medications.

Physical Therapy:
Specific exercises can help improve posture, strengthen the muscles supporting the back, and improve flexibility. This can have significant impact that brings relief and improve upon most of the symptoms. Other techniques such as manual therapy, Electrotherapy are helpful in sciatica.

Steroid Injections:
In some cases, corticosteroid injections around the irritated nerve can help reduce inflammation and pain.

Surgery: This is typically considered if the compressed nerve causes significant weakness, loss of bowel or bladder control, or if the pain progressively worsens or doesn’t improve with other therapies.

PREVENTION:
To prevent sciatica or keep it from recurring, it’s important to:

1. Exercise regularly.
2. Maintain proper posture when sitting.
3. Use good body mechanics when lifting heavy objects.

Understanding the underlying cause of sciatica is crucial for effective treatment and management. If you suspect you have sciatica, consulting with a healthcare provider is essential for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

⭕Fracture healing

A fracture is a break in a structural continuity of a bone. It can also be defined as loss of continuity in the substance of a bone.

When your bone is fractured, it will certainly heal, but the most important thing is how best it is healing. This is why a proper reduction is required post fracture. Fracture healing takes place in three stages or phases. The second stage which is the reparative stage would be addressed in this article whilst the remaining; remodeling stage would be tackled in subsequent posts.

➡️ REPARATIVE STAGE

This stage takes over as soon as the inflammatory stage is over. In about two weeks after the fracture, the activities of the osteoblasts and osteoclasts are wholly stimulated. The osteaoclast clears away the necrotic bone.

The osteaoblast and chodrocytes within the granulation tissue formed at the inflammatory stage begin to synthesize the cartilage and woven bone matrices leading to the formation of soft callus -not strong enough for weight bearing.

The newly formed cartilage further undergoes endochondral ossification and connects to the woven bone leading to the formation of bony substance or hard callus.

This hard callus is mineralized making it more increased in stiffness or strength and controlled weight bearing (PWB) can therefore be started.
The stage paves way for the bone to remodel for anatomical structure to be attained.
