During the treatment process, each patient will be diagnosed and treated by different doctors according to a different regimen depending on each person's pathology. Many patients with mild symptoms do not need medication, but just need to rest and adjust their daily routine. But there are also cases of severe disease requiring surgical intervention if indicated by a doctor. The most common treatment today for people with new-onset sciatica is the use of drugs. Because drugs often give pain relief quite quickly. However, patients need to understand the drugs to use them correctly and effectively.
