New here and trying to learn about sciatic nerve down my leg

What triggered your pain 4 months ago? Did you get initial X-rays and MRI before they did your injections? How did they know where to do the injections? Did you see a neurologist and have EMG/nerve conduction studies done of your lower limbs? Did you do any physical therapy or massage to release/relax muscles? Did you ever see a chiropractor ?
Even though you don’t have back pain, you could have a disc bulge/pinched nerve root/nerve that is radiating pain signals down your leg.
There are times that cervical spine (neck) issues can affect your legs/lower body, too.

It started with Back pain last March. I got X-ray's with a Chiropractor and was put on a 3 month program 3 times a week. Went to a Orthopedic surgeon I got the first X-ray from Orthopedic surgeon. that put me on physical therapy. and they gave me a steroid pack the 6 day one. I was fine until about September when he did an MRI. I wish that I had just gone to Mayo months ago because my mistake was going to an Orthopedic surgeon when I should have been at a Neurosurgeon.
