Can Sciatica Nerve Pain Cause Gastric Or Stomach Upset?
My mum has been in emotional stress since July 2012 after the death of his brother, in October, he started to get burning back pain and tingling pain in her left buttock. Doctor said its due to sciatica. She also got stomach upset and loss of apetite. Is sciatica nerve pain causing gastric or stomach upset?
HI Well come to HCM Your query and concern appreciated, these are three different conditions one is emotional stress second is sciatica, and third is stomach upset these three are not connected with each other and in my opinion sciatica would demands the medical attention, else the emotion stress can be minimized with moral support, stomach upset may required exact symptoms, and underlying cause, because stomach upset may not create any clear sense as long as the illness is concern, it may be dyspepsia, nausea, diarrhea, distension, and other some time may be infection, and for all of these differentiation is must, hope this information helps.
