Who's got advice for sciatica?

Whimper..... So just starting last night and today I'm getting terrible sciatic pain. It's shooting all down my left leg and very uncomfortable. I'm sitting with a heating pad now, but am wondering if anyone's had success with a chiropractor for this, or something else?  TIA!

    My doctor told me to lie on my side and pull my knee to my chest. I alternate sides, holding for about a minute. It really helps!

    In my own experience, the only thing that works is a massage by a sports massage therapist. Expensive but worth every cent for the pain relief. It's all cause by underlying tight glute and back muscles, and until you treat those, long term relief will be hard to find. Good luck!
