Subtle focal ectasia of the supraclinoid segment of the left ICA 1.6mm compared to the normal contralateral supraclinoid ICA diameter of 1mm,what is that about ?

Hi Sarah! I would recommend having it looked at my a provider that practices Active Release Technique. You can go to their website activerelease.com and go to find provider and type in your zip code. It will pull up the list of providers close to your location. Look for one that has taken their nerve entrapment course (it will have an icon next to their name). It's best to have it looked at rather than me give you advice without seeing you and doing an exam. Please keep me posted on how it goes.

I am asking for your advice I done my lower part of my back and 2 people said it might be sciatica I get a pain in my lower back and it goes down to my bottom and down my leg. I had this for 4 weeks but I don't want to stop training because I don't want to lose muscle size and strength. Would press ups be alright to do or doing sitting on the floor against a wall lifting barbell over your head would that be alright to do.
