how long does it take for a sciata problem to subside?


Question:


Answers:
There is no way to accurately predict how long a sciatic problem will take to subside. The sciatic nerve has some capacity to repair itself, but the amount of damage sustained dictates when and if the problem will subside. As a general rule, however, the longer the problem persists, the more likely it is to remain permanent.
I herniated a disc four years ago, and have had nerve decompression surgery to no avail. I will probably have the pain and numbness forever.
It can take years.
