Pressure caused by aherniated or bulging discmay also cause sciatica. When a disc protrudes out from between the vertebrae – whether caused by an event like a car accident or by months of uneven pressure due to muscle imbalances – the slightest pressure on a nerve can create pain. While h...

and the herniated disc puts direct pressure on the nerve. This causessciatica, which is a sharp, severe pain that radiates all the way down the leg and into the foot. A lumbar herniated disc might also affect the femoral nerve, which can cause numbness, tingling, or burning in the legs,...
It may also cause enough additional disc stress to result in further disc bulging (herniated disc) and subsequent sciatica (pain down the leg) due to nerve root compression. If a structural abnormality is already present from pervious stress or traumas, than the hyper-lordosis that is made ...
