I seriously doubt that Carolann. And with sciatica, usually, you will feel numbness down your leg to your foot too.
You should try, at your own risk of course, toe touch-ers, lightly, gently, stretching your leg and back muscles. If you are lucky, you are just tightened up.
And, because this can be a difficult or overlooked cause, look up everything you can about the piriformis muscle . it can tighten up and squeeze the sciatic nerves, Located it and massage it. It’s very deep, difficult to massage but if it’s it you’ll be glade you found it because, if so, it should relive some troubles in short time.
My wife was down, in bed, with it for a month and after two months research I learned about this. I gave her, and I am not a Masseuse, one deep, slightly painfull, massage across and threw out the piriformis muscle and she was out of bed within hours and on her feet again.
Good luck..
