Sleeping position for sciatica

Patients with sciatica can sleep in the following two positions. 1. For most patients, they can sleep in the supine position, where they need to sleep face up, and a small pillow can be placed under the waist to keep the waist in a forward curve. If the patient takes this position and still has slight lower extremity pain, he can also put a small pillow under the knee joints and keep the knee joints slightly bent bilaterally, which can effectively relieve the discomfort caused by sciatica. 2, such patients can also maintain the affected side in a lateral lying position, such as the patient in the left lower extremity has obvious pain, can take the right side of the bed. At this time, the left lower limb above can maintain a slight bend, through this way is also conducive to the relief of sciatica.
