Sciatica is a debilitating pain condition characterised by pain radiating to the leg from the lower back. But there is currently no simple solution to relieve this pain. In this clinical trial, we will investigate whether oral steroids, a simple, low-cost treatment, taken over a 5-week period can indeed reduce leg pain, improve other important outcomes and be reasonably tolerated in patients with acute sciatica.

坐骨神经痛是一种使人衰弱的疼痛状况，其特征是疼痛从下背部辐射到腿部。但目前还没有简单的解决方案来缓解这种痛苦。在这项临床试验中，我们将研究口服类固醇，一种简单，低成本的治疗方法，在5周内是否确实可以减轻腿部疼痛，改善其他重要结果，并在急性坐骨神经痛患者中合理耐受。
