Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

Sciatica's treatment is long time process.
Antiinflamatory drugs and muscle relaxant are given for relief.

After taking some relief You can start physiotherapy treatment.
Physiotherapy help you to improve your body flexibility. pain may relieve by this.

Steroid may use in sciatica case.That reduce nerve irritation and inflammation also.Steroid help to decrease pain.

Avoid overweight load.
Take rest.
Try to reduce your weight if it is more.
After taking this much care still problems are present than surgery is last option.

Wish you a good health
Thanks.
