Default Sciatica

Gday PWRXers,

Now I realise asking medical advice on a car forum is pretty silly but I was wondering If any of you have had trouble with sciatica. Its basicaly means something is putting pressure on a nerve ending in your lower back and I get pain shooting down my left leg, which is a bitch when you have to drive a manual .
Ive had back back problems previously and the doc said it has caused the sciatica. Im taking some anti-inflammatrys that the doc prescribed and it is getting slowly better but Im also pondering some pysio also.

Anyone else sufferered from this and has any advice or remedies that worked for them?

Cheers
