| Sciatic Pain |
|
With the help of the Lasègue-Test, in which the patient lies on his back and slowly raises the affected leg, the stimulation of the sciatic nerve can be reproduced. If during a placement angle of under 60° a corresponding pain on the posterior surface of the thigh occurs, a positive test can be classified.
Fur further clarification, X-rays as well as MRI or CT are indicated. Symptomatic sciatic pain can be treated with pain and anti-inflammatory medication as well as with antibiotics or antivirals. Frequently, selective image- intensifier-guided methods can also be used.
