10 Causes of Sciatic Nerve Pain
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Cause #2: Occupation
Sciatic nerve pain is more likely to be seen in some occupations as some work-related activities may have a negative impact on the sciatic nerve.
Jobs that cause whole body vibrations, harmful work postures, heavy lifting, or physical loading may cause a higher risk of herniations and disc tears. Even occupations that cause prolonged sitting, especially on hard surfaces, can also cause sciatic nerve pain as there is pressure and compression on the sciatic nerve.
