Leg Pain

Leg pain can be the result of an injury specifically to the leg or irritation of the sciatic nerve. Injuries to the leg often result in inflammation in the surrounding tissues. With manual adjustments, chiropractors work to improve movement in the leg, decrease swelling, and improve overall function of the nerves supplying the leg. Nerve irritation, mainly the sciatic nerve, is another primary cause of leg pain. Chiropractic adjustments help to align the spine and take any pressure off of the sciatic nerve to relieve leg pain
