FAQs for this concern
An online page cannot replace an evaluation. These answers help you prepare for a more informed conversation with the practice.
Does every leg-pain concern mean sciatica?
No. Similar symptoms can have different contributors. An evaluation is needed to discuss an appropriate next step rather than relying on a label alone.
Can I ask about decompression during a sciatica evaluation?
Yes. Dr. Ferris can discuss whether decompression is worth considering based on your history and findings, along with other care options available at the practice.
