Is Pain In Right Hip And Foot Radiating To Leg Suggestive Of Sciatica?

My 29 year old daughter is having pain in her right hip, and in her right foot. She first noticed it when she got out of bed this morning. Earlier today the pain radiated all the way down her leg. I m thinking pinched sciatic nerve. Is that what you would think?

Hello,

It may be due to sciatica.

For further assessment you may require MRI back, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation.

For pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.

Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

You may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation.

You may require tablet Pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.

Continue physical therapy

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
