Veteran Actress Pascaline Edwards is suffering from sciatica but the good news is that the beautiful actress is recovering.

The term sciatica describes the symptoms of leg pain—and possibly tingling, numbness or weakness—that originate in the lower back and travel through the buttock and down the large sciatic nerve in the back of the leg.

Sciatica is often characterized by one or a combination of the following symptoms:

Constant pain in only one side of the buttock or leg (rarely can occur in both legs)

Pain that is worse when sitting
Leg pain that is often described as burning, tingling or searing (vs. a dull ache)

Weakness, numbness or difficulty moving the leg or foot

A sharp pain that may make it difficult to stand up or to walk

Up to 90% people recover from sciatica without surgery.
