Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the nature and treatment of sciatica, a very painful condition of the great sciatic nerve. Sciatica was once thought to be neuralgia but is now understood to be an inflammation of the nerve itself, known as perineuritis or neuritis. It can be caused by exposure to cold and damp, and most often affects people between the ages of forty and sixty who have a gouty disposition. The author outlines the symptoms and causes of sciatica, and discusses the difficulties in diagnosing sciatica from other painful conditions that affect the hip-joint. He proposes various treatments, including acupuncture, injection of sterilized water or osmic acid, and massage. He also discusses the benefits of rest, warmth, and a healthy diet. This book will appeal to anyone suffering from sciatica who is interested in understanding and treating their condition. It will also be of interest to medical professionals who treat patients with sciatica.
