Bilateral sciatica

2024-09-03 11:05:31
I had lower back and bilateral back side leg pain since 4-5 days for which I did an ortho consultation, where the doc. Informed it is bilateral sciatica but there is no spine problem, he prescribed gabapentin, zerodol and mgd3. I just wanted to ask what are the other causes of this condition since i forgot to ask him?! Can someone kindly elaborate. Will this improve?! I again have to consult him in 2 weeks, but i just wanted to know about what caused it.
