Sciatica...Ice or Heat?  How Often, When & Where?

2/19/2020

 
​Heat or Ice…Which Is Better?  This is a common question I get from many of my patients regardless of where their pain or problem is.  So often that I wrote a blog about it several months back…you can read the full blog here.

Don’t worry I’ll do a quick review on the basics I covered in that blog, but today I’ll be going even deeper into this topic.  Why?  Because once you know if heat or ice is best for your situation, there are a few more questions that most people need answered to get the most benefit out of it, especially for those with something like Sciatica Pain.

I often hear things like:
  • “It hurts all the way from my butt to my foot!”
  • “I can’t get comfortable no matter what I try!”
  • “I can’t sit.  I can’t stand.  I can’t sleep.”
  • “I don’t understand what I did or why this is happening.”
