Two words that strike immediate fear into people who've had it:
i) shingles (not me, not now, thankfully that was 25 years ago)
ii) sciatica (yup, that's me, right now)

Fortunately, it's a relatively mild case, and aspirin is helping. I aggravated my left lower back swapping the TV sets last week, and although there's no direct back pain, there's extremely uncomfortable and quite annoying pain all the way down my left leg, especially when I'm sitting. Annoyed
sucks. Comfort

I had a truly painful case of sciatica on the right side many years ago, but that was caused by a pileonidal cyst putting pressure on the nerve, and they gave me tons of pain killers and muscle relaxants for that. I was out of work for two weeks, and couldn't drive the whole time because of the drugs. Right now, standing and walking are doing the most good for this aggravating mofo, followed by aspirin.

Wifey has had sciatica issues. Doesn't seem like something I'd recommend.
my dad does too. It's Reaper

One yoga move that helps is Pigeon- opens the paraformis- theres some other ones listed here too [himalayaninstitute.org]-- spinal twist is easy and feels so nice

Many thanks, VViles. I've already started stretching in positions similar to some of these, and it's beginning to help. It's definitely the piriformis muscle that's causing my discomfort.

I think when they expanded the department he's in a few months ago, they just took all the people that sucked at positions they were currently occupying.
