Relieve Sciatica Pain With This Natural 10-Minute Bedtime Treatment

Sciatic nerve pain or sciatica pain refers to the pain a person feels in the lower part of the back, upper thighs and buttocks. Thanks to the longest nerve in the body – sciatic nerve – the pain can be felt all the way down to the feet. Although sciatica pain can come and go, it’s usually repetitive and the pain can sometimes be severe.

Sciatic Nerve Pain Symptoms

If you experience any of the following symptoms or a combination of them, you may be suffering from sciatica pain:

• Pain located in the lower back, continuing down the back of the thigh, lower leg and foot,
• Sharp and searing pain in the lower back,
• Pain in only one side of the leg or buttock,
• Tingling in the buttocks and legs,
• A feeling of numbness or prickling.

So why does sciatica pain happen? Usually, it’s because of the inflammation of the nerve, which triggers severe and often unbearable pain.

10-Minute Home Remedy

Because sciatic nerve pain is due to inflammation, the best way to relieve the symptoms is to deal with the root cause  – the inflammation itself. For this, there is a simple, natural remedy that can help, and it only takes 10 minutes of your time.

Here’s what you need to do:

• Pour 10 liters of hot water (but not too hot as you don’t want to burn yourself) into a bucket;
• Add ½ liter of apple cider vinegar and about a handful of salt to the water;
• Stir the ingredients really well;
• Once done, put your feet into the bucket and relax until you feel the water has cooled down;
• Towel dry your feet and go to bed with your socks on – you should stay warm during the entire night.

This simple remedy relieves inflammation and therefore the symptoms of sciatica pain. To make it really work, you must keep your feet warm the entire next day as well (so socks are a must, no matter the season). Depending on the severity of the sciatica pain, you can repeat the treatment the next day or as many times as necessary.
