Viagra may provide lasting relief for radiating low back pain. Sciatica means that the sciatic nerve is being compressed, usually causing pain in the low back and running down the back of the leg. Other sensations associated with sciatica may include tingling and/or a burning or prickly feeling, usually only on one side of the body. Sciatic nerve irritation usually occurs at the L5 or S1 level of the spine.
Scientists found that the anti-erectile-dysfunction drug Viagra eases sciatica. A daily low dose speeded recovery, healed damages nerves, and boosted movement. Viagra worked by boosting blood supply to damaged nerves, stimulated nerve regeneration, and accelerated the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
