The sciatic nerve begins in your lower back and branches off in to your hips, buttocks, legs and down to your feet. Most times you will feel this condition on 1 side only, but in rare cases it can arise in both sides which typically means there is a serious mis-alignment in your lower back. The pain worsen while sitting, standing, walking or bending your back forward or in reverse. Even such things as coughing, sneezing or laughing can create a painful sensation down your leg, how frustrating!
