talk to me about sciatica pain

I have only just noticed this pain over the past few days but above my tailbone only on my left is starting to get really painful if I stand or sit too long.

It seems pretty early for this to happen now? Anyone have it and can share your experiences?

    Mine came and went throughout. There were times when I'd stand up and my legs would give out from under me because of the pain. But it didn't last long. I just didn't know when it would "hit" me.

    I had it early on too. It lasted for about 3 weeks. My neuromuscular therapist massaged it twice and that really helped. Here's what helped me in addition to the massages:

    When you sleep on your side, keep a pillow between your knees. Lay down with a heating pad on the spot for about 15 minutes every time it hurts. Try to stretch it out periodically. My neuromuscular therapist suggested laying on a tennis ball and rolling it at the spot to help rub it out.  I also found that wearing shoes with no support (like my beloved flip flops) made it worse.
