Any abdominal problem can aggravate a sciatic problem, but sciatica is generally caused by the L4/5 disk pressing on the sciatic nerve. The pain is unmistakable, as it travels down the back of your legs into your feet. Essentially it feels like you've been stabbed in the lower back by a gnome from the inside that's twisting the knife around and enjoying it.
Since Crohns can affect how a person sits, walks and lies down, it can affect a person's overall posture and pressure on the lower back, and thus the sciatic nerve, making any sciatic problem worse.
