1) Anxiety and stress trigger sympathetic nervous responses
that result in all kinds of physiological changes, one of
them being increased muscle tone and tightening. This can
exacerbate any underlying, existing myofascial condition.
2) Be soft seated ( cushioned comfort) in a chair that
promotes good posture ( lumbar support).
3) Acute to chronic leg/buttock pain can be problem enough
and can result in affected gait and amongst many other
things, a general decrease in quality of life leading to
secondary and tertiary problems
Although newsgroups are fine for general interest, go see
your doctor, chiropractor, PT or MT for proper assessment
and treatment.
Quoted message said:1) I'm wondering whether sciatica could ever be caused by
psychological stress, anxiety, depression, etc...
2) If it's only because of a continuous pressure over the
nerve, what would you advice someone who's work
requires that she sit on her buttocks for a loooong
long time continuously? No maximizing mobility or
Independence!
3) apart from the pain, how much dangerous it could go?
Do you know if there were another more proper place
to ask in?
Thank you,
