If you have moderate to severe pain that radiates from your lower back and buttock down into the back of your leg, you may have sciatica (also called lumbar radiculopathy) – a painful condition that affects millions of Americans.
Sciatica is often caused by a bulging disc in the lower back pressing against the sciatic nerve - a nerve that begins in the lower back and extends down the back of each leg. This is why sciatica pain often feels like it “travels” down the back of one leg. Sciatica pain varies from person to person. Sometimes it is a sharp or shooting pain, while for others it can feel like tingling, numbness or weakness.
If you’ve been struggling with sciatica leg pain for at least 2 months, you may qualify for the SERENITY CM Clinical Study, now being offered at select US centers. The study is for an investigational, non-steroid, non-opioid treatment designed to relieve sciatica pain going down one leg. Participants in the SERENITY CM Study will receive all study-related care at no cost.
