Sciatica is a painful condition that is associated with nerve pain that can be felt in the lower back, buttocks area and can extend down the entire leg. While sciatica can be extremely unpleasant and painful, it also causes weakness in the legs and can severely restrict movement.

Today, garlic is a familiar household herb, and we often forget its true properties and health benefits.
