Hello there. I can understand your concern.
The treatment of sciatica is just pain management and supplementation of vitamin b complex along with physiotherapy.
Kindly continue physiotherapy and one tablet zerodol-pg twice a day after food.
Consult neurologist for further help.
Best regards.
Dr. Anil Kumar Jain.
