Question : The symptom checker said my pain was probably from sciatica, but the pain is concentrated in one spot, not down my leg. It is a strong pressure pain in one spot, to the right of my spine at hip height.

Brief Answer:
Low back pain.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

These symptoms you describe are not typical for sciatica.

Low back pain and its possible causes should be considered and evaluated further.

These possible causes include muscles strain, bad posture, weightlifting, and in some cases, spondylosis, herniated disc disease, etc.

Getting evaluated by your primary care Doctor is the first step in understanding your condition better and possible treatment ways.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Dr. Erion Spaho, Neurologist, Surgical
