Sciatica - Now don't laugh

I had a severe case, and used crutches or cane to get around for 4 years.
My wife wanted to start walking, but I would never be able to keep up.
I bought a push scooter to go walking with her.
Could not believe what happened.
After less than 2 weeks using the scooter, my scaitc pain was lessened.
Within 3 months, I was walking without any aid; and that was 7 years ago.

I think what happened was, I took the weight off part of my body, and was able to exercise and stretch one side at a time.
Siatica, in my case, was caused by scar tissue and a weakening of some of my back muscles due to inactivity and proper exercise. I still get some pain once in a while; it tells me not to do whatever I'm doing too long. Sitting too long, bad chair, bad posture, etc... Tweet
