sciatic pain or muscle tear?

Options
So, I've been doing the 30 day shred for approx. 5 days, mixed in with days of cardio on the treadmill. Well I worked out yesterday and ended up at the chiropractor's in the afternoon, with a lot of pain in my hip, down to my knee and into my ankle. I'm thinking another trip to the chiropractor to see if my hip may be out, anyone else deal with this kinda issue? Hurts to go up stairs and sit for long periods of time...

    you may have pinched a disc or herniated one in your lumbar spine...

    doubt seriously that's a muscle. Sounds more like sciatica, treat it right and hopefully will be short lived. If it was a injury and not a irritation you;d of known it when you hurt it.....

    I had bengay on it last night and when it woke me up at 2am, well then it was time for some heat. Brotherbill, what would you recommend to get it feeling better? I've had hip/knee pain before but this definitely feels different...loose ligaments in knees since I was in my teens.
