Dear Sciatic Nerve, Fuck You.
Wikipedia defines sciatica as set of symptoms
including pain that may be caused by general
compression and/or irritation of one of five nerve
roots that give rise to the sciatic nerve, or by
compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve
itself. I define it is a pain in my ass. Quite
literally, as the pain is felt in the lower back,
buttock and various parts of the leg and foot.
I’m an active person, or, at least, I was and wish I still was. Unfortunately the mere act of sitting is currently the bane of my existence. To put it in terms you may be able to understand, imagine a great big wallet in your back pocket, only this wallet has a rock in it...a rock holding a knife and it’s pointed straight at your ass cheek. The fact that I like to run, cycle, play soccer and generally not let age get the best of body only aggravates this devil of a condition. I’ve tried everything. I’ve even gone to a witch doctor..ahem..a chiropractor. I’m pretty sure that just made it worse.
My sciatica is compounded by my SI joint dysfunction. I’m not going to get into what that means. Just know that it basically means my back, groin, and hip hurt. This too, is also worst when sitting. Guess what I do all day?
Currently, it’s all pretty bad, which is why the little bitch of a condition is getting a whole blog post dedicated to it. Fuck you sciatic nerve and SI joint dysfunction. Fuck you.
