Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Back Pain & Sciatica treatments at Raj Hospital

Does sciatica always require surgery?

No. Most cases of sciatica resolve within a few weeks to months with conservative treatments like physiotherapy, medications, and injections. Surgery is typically reserved for severe, unresponsive cases.

What is the fastest way to relieve acute sciatica?

Acute sciatica requires immediate rest followed closely by specific clinical physiotherapy and targeted epidural steroid injections for massive inflammation control.

Can lifting heavy objects cause sciatica?

Yes. Lifting heavy weights improperly frequently causes acute disc herniation, which directly pinches the sensitive sciatic nerve.

How can I prevent back pain at work?

Maintaining proper ergonomic workstation posture and taking frequent short walking breaks effectively prevents occupational back pain.

Should I apply heat or cold?

Apply ice immediately during the first 48 hours of an acute episode to reduce inflammation, then safely switch to heat to relieve muscle tension.
