After the sciatic nerve is compressed, the patient will experience numbness in the left leg, mainly in the lateral calf, and some patients will also experience soreness and swelling in the buttocks. 2, if the patient is mainly numbness in the upper left leg or has hyperalgesia, consider that after pregnancy, due to the increase in the abdomen, the enlarged uterus compresses the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve.
