Understanding Your Sciatica: If you’re dealing with sciatica or nerve pain, you already know this isn’t just an occasional ache. It’s electric, sharp, and often unpredictable. Some days it shoots from your lower back down your leg, making it hard to walk, sit, or even sleep. Other days, it hits out of nowhere like when you bend over, get out of bed, or step out of your car. You’ve probably tried painkillers, stretches, maybe even just “living with it.” But the flare-ups keep coming back.

Understand the Real Cause of Your Sciatica or Nerve Pain

Sciatica typically happens when something compresses or irritates your sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in your body that runs from your lower spine down each leg.

Common Causes We Treat:

Herniated or bulging discs
Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spine)
Degenerative disc disease
Piriformis syndrome
Spondylolisthesis (vertebra slipping out of place)
Pinched or inflamed nerve roots

Before starting treatment, Dr. Michael Erdman and our team use advanced diagnostics and imaging (MRI, ultrasound, physical nerve testing) to pinpoint the exact source of your pain.

Non-Surgical Sciatica Treatments We Offer

Once we identify the cause, we build a personalized plan focused on relieving pressure on your nerve and addressing the pain at its source.

Image-Guided Epidural Steroid Injections

May help reduce inflammation around the irritated nerve root for targeted relief. Learn about lumbar epidural injections.

Selective Nerve Root Blocks

Diagnostic and therapeutic injections that pinpoint and calm the affected nerve.

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)

For chronic cases, RFA may help reduce pain signals from overactive nerves without surgery.

Non-Opioid Medication Management

We use short-term anti-inflammatories, nerve stabilizers, and other non-opioid options to help manage the pain cycle safely.

Physical Therapy Referrals

For certain patients, we coordinate with physical therapists for nerve gliding exercises, lumbar stabilization, and postural correction to help prevent recurrence.

FAQs: Sciatica & Nerve Pain in Hialeah

What does sciatica feel like?

Sciatica is often described as a sharp, burning, or electric pain that radiates from the lower back or buttock down the back of the leg. It may come with numbness, tingling, or weakness in the leg or foot, and it can be triggered by sitting, bending, or standing up.

How long does sciatica usually last?

Many cases of sciatica ease over several weeks with conservative care, but some people have pain that persists or keeps returning. When symptoms last beyond a few weeks or keep flaring, an evaluation can help identify the underlying cause and the options that may help.

When should I see a doctor for sciatica or nerve pain?

It’s reasonable to seek care when pain is severe, lasts more than a couple of weeks, or keeps coming back. Seek prompt medical attention for progressive leg weakness, numbness in the groin area, or loss of bladder or bowel control, as these can signal a more serious problem.

Can sciatica be treated without surgery?

Many patients are managed without surgery. Non-surgical options may include image-guided epidural or nerve blocks, activity modification, and physical therapy. A clinical evaluation with Dr. Erdman determines whether a non-surgical approach is appropriate for your condition.

Do you offer care in Spanish?

Yes. Our Hialeah team offers care in English and Spanish. Se habla español. You can also read about chronic pain care in Spanish on our tratamiento del dolor crónico en Hialeah page.
