I blame this current flare up of issues on getting back into running for the season and doing too long of runs. I think my cycling fitness is my own worst enemy in regards to running, I go for a run and think to myself how easy it feels, but then my lower body feels thrashed once I cool down from the run.
I had sciatica and can really sympathize. What helped and ultimately stopped it was an ultrasound guided cortisone shot with the longest needle I had the displeasure or seeing. But it really worked for me, so I would do it again. If it reoccurs.

Hope yours resolves and stays away,
