I've recently started experiencing a shooting pain down my right leg. What is causing this? - Mike Melton
John, it sounds like you might be experiencing sciatica, which is an inflammation of the sciatic nerve.
The sciatic nerve is a large nerve that runs from your spine down your leg. When it gets irritated, it can result in the shooting pains you're experiencing.
It can be caused by a variety of things, and a careful examination is important to properly diagnose the problem.
Give me a call at the office, and we'll get an appointment scheduled for you.
