I’m honestly not sure where to turn…My mum is constantly in absolute agony with sciatica which started back in December 2025 and progressively got worse, she now cannot do basic tasks without being in pain, she can’t sleep, can’t sit down and has to be moving constantly.

She thinks it is maybe from when she used to do deadlifts at the gym. The doctors keep giving her painkillers, she does stretches & physiotherapy to help and has recently been to a chiropractor and had acupuncture and a massage but none of this has helped.

I’m still learning about the condition but if anyone has any tips / advice / best ways to help would be greatly appreciated 😊
