​There is a pain in the thigh and buttocks

The thigh is connected to the buttocks by nerves. When there is a problem with the thigh or other bones, it will cause pain in the buttocks and thigh roots. It is not ruled out that it may be related to sciatica. It needs to be adjusted slowly in normal times, and try to avoid traction treatment methods. It is necessary to understand the factors of the disease in time and choose appropriate methods to prevent it.

Causes of sciatica include:

1. Mechanical compression: Lumbar disc herniation, spinal tumors, etc. can compress the sciatic nerve and cause pain. 90% of sciatica is caused by compression factors, most commonly lumbar disc herniation.

2. Neuritis: Lead poisoning, alcohol poisoning, diabetes, vitamin B1 deficiency, and viral infection can all cause sciatica, leading to sciatica.

3. Referred pain: Sciatica can be caused by reflex pain around the anus, hip arthritis, and lumbosacral arthritis.

Clinical manifestations of sciatica:

Patients usually have low back pain first, but the pain is weak and quickly develops into severe thigh and calf pain, mostly unilateral lower limb pain. The pain is severe when standing, sitting, walking, stretching legs, or lifting things; the pain worsens when coughing, sneezing, or straining to have a bowel movement.

Various treatments for sciatica:

Because sciatica has a slow and prolonged course, seriously affecting the patient's work and life, it must be diagnosed and treated early. First of all, you should go to the hospital for treatment and receive correct treatment based on the clear cause of the disease. Nerve block is one of the commonly used treatment methods, such as the psoas intermuscular block, which is safe and effective.
