Some very good information on sciatica. There are chapters on numbness, weakness and an entire chapter on pain, and ways to manage it, including trigger point injections of lidocaine(which I ended up having and have found very helpful).

C. Grant said Feel empowered with knowledge!. I had back pain for months and it started getting worse despite all my home exercise therapy. I eventually decided to seek medical help and while doing so, I read this book. It was just GREAT to go in to this with an education! The book is very well written and full of medical information that throughly explains the complexity of the lower back. It basically helped satisfy my curiosity and my desire for an education about the back. I have since discovered I have a herniated disk and this book is now helping me through my treatment options. If you seek knowledge - get this book.
