Dr. Lin Yunfei
Sciatic nerve injury manifests as limb weakness, motor dysfunction, and muscular impairment, along with sensory abnormalities—including numbness, pain, and aching—in the affected dermatomal region. Treatment may include neurotrophic medications prescribed by a physician to promote local nerve recovery—for example, mecobalamin—combined with intravenous infusions of mannitol and methylprednisolone.
