In reply to Matt Gibbons:
I have a bad back. I did a lot of running last year then got sciatic pain. The physio didn’t explain the implications of what happens if it properly “goes”. Mine “Went” and a year on it still recurs, but I know (after 5 Physios and a lot of trying) how to release it within 48 hours.
So I’d recommend STOP!!!! But keep exercising another way, NOTHING vigorous, but don’t stop entirely, find a good physio, then another, then another (they’re all good but take something from each, and they specialise - inc neuro!!).
Find releases for the problem and get better before you start again or risk a v.long term injury.
Bill
