Suggest Treatment For Sciatica

There is pain in my left leg. It starts from the hip and goes down below the knee when I walk for sometime. I am advised that this is sciatica. A nerve has been pressed which pains when blood passes through it. What should I do

I am female age 65, height 165 cm weight 78 kg. Don't have any other problem such as sugar or blood pressure
