With an penched siatic nerve why would there be mild sensory and motor loss in left buttock and leg?
A pinched sciatic nerve can lead to mild sensory and motor loss in the left buttock and leg due to the nerve's role in transmitting signals between the spinal cord and the lower body. Compression or irritation of the nerve can disrupt these signals, resulting in weakness (motor loss) and altered sensation (sensory loss) in the areas it innervates. This can manifest as pain, tingling, or numbness, reflecting the affected nerve's pathways. The severity of the symptoms often depends on the degree of compression and the duration of the condition.
