Are You Struggling With Persistent Sciatica?

Pain in the lower back. Numbness or tingling down the leg. A pins and needles sensation in your leg, feet or toes. These are some of the common symptoms that millions of sciatica sufferers experience. Dr. Quigley has decades of expertise in treating this often debilitating condition. In his recent YouTube video featured below, he delves into crucial aspects of managing sciatica, shedding light on the importance of diagnosis and tailored treatment.

The Really Good News: It’s Highly Treatable

Sciatica affects a staggering number of people each year, and it can linger for years if left untreated. According to Dr. Quigley, the good news is that in 99% of cases, sciatica is highly treatable. What’s critical is identifying the root cause, which is precisely what Dr. Quigley does to help patients.

The Importance of a Thorough Exam

Drawing from his 30-year career and numerous successful sciatica treatments, Dr. Quigley stresses pinpointing why sciatica persists. He conducts a comprehensive examination, including motion X-rays and MRIs, to make that determination.

The motion study X-rays offer a dynamic view of the spine’s functionality. By capturing the spine in motion, these X-rays reveal areas of both function and dysfunction. This detailed insight enables a tailored approach to treatment, addressing the specific areas causing sciatic discomfort.

MRI scans are a powerful tool to help Dr. Quigley make a diagnosis, as they can assess spinal disc health and other related structures. An MRI is highly valuable for someone with long-term sciatica as it helps him craft a more effective treatment plan.
