miklo-west310 asked: can you tell me some things about an a sciatic nerve ?
The sciatic nerve is the collection of neurons coming out of the base of the spine and innervating all along the lower back, legs, and feet. Sciatica is where the nerve is being pressed upon (usually by a bulging disc in the spinal cord) and so the nerve causes the person to feel pain, tingling, and/or weakness down the course of the leg (basically to everything it innervates). I am not sure exactly what sort of things you wanted to know, but I hope this helps!
