Patients usually feel sciatic pain symptoms in multiple regions. The pain can be in the lower back, leg, behind the knee, and even in the foot.

Sciatica FAQ
Sciatic pain can range anywhere from slight discomfort to unbearable pain. The pain can be sharp, throbbing, burning and even stabbing. Sometimes the pain can be so severe that it can drop people to their knees. Often times sciatic pain can show up in different areas of the leg and foot. Some people might not even have back pain, while others will have back pain plus sciatic pain. Often the pain can come and go, or for others it is so unbearable they are unable to perform any activities. The best time to get the problem checked is as soon as the pain begins, before it gets too severe.
