Reply to comment by Majestic-Feedback541 in Snowed In = ☆Maine Life☆ by xkoffinkatx

Thank you! Next time I will do that! It's just so expensive I want to make sure my money is going to something that will help me, I'm snowed in today but I can't take days off of work just because of this, I need some relief. I injured it back in 09 and the nurse told my mom who went with me to the hospital, that once you mess up a sciatic nerve it's an ongoing thing. Like I said I called out of work and I never do that, I'm just going to take the day to rest. Have a good night and be safe

It is an ongoing issue, I'm not sure much can be done (surgically or medication) other than what you already do to alleviate the pain. But I'm no Dr, nor do I suffer from sciatica pain.

That stuff is expensive, trust me, I understand the apprehension. I hate buying things that don't work, and you can't return. Take some time to look around for a good shop though. As around your local area (or just outside your local area) and see how good reviews are, how helpful/knowledgeable staff is, etc.

As I said previously (in different words lol), any smart shop owner/employee would want to keep customers coming back, so they should be able to recommend something worth buying.

One thing I didnt say, keep in mind that each and every one of us is different. What works for some may not work for you. An alternate approach, you could consult with your doctor to see if s/he has any recommendations for you. Make sure to mention this incident and it is preventing you from work.
