The Hidden Cause of Back Pain and Sciatica

Long hours at a desk, repetitive motions, or heavy physical work can place uneven stress on the intervertebral discs. Over time, poor posture and constant pressure can gradually weaken the spine and disrupt its natural alignment.

When this happens, a disc may shift out of position and press on the sciatic nerve. This compression can trigger burning or stabbing pain, tingling sensations, and even weakness that travels from the lower back down through the legs.
