I have a bad sciatica pain in my right leg. It feels numb all the time. I am not sure if Solu medrol is better or Cortisone is better in terms of strength?

Pressure on your sciatica to put it in pain comes from tight muscles in your lower back pressing onto the nerves as they go to the legs. You can free up those muscles to get rid of the pain and here’s how to release them to do that:
Back:
(do from a sitting position)
Place your left hand on your left leg next to your body. Place your right hand over your left shoulder, fingers over the back and the palm in the front and firmly press on them and hold. After 30 seconds slowly lower your body forward and to the outside of your left leg, keeping your left arm fairly straight as you do. When you reach your lap remain there for another 10 seconds, release the pressure but rest there for another 30 seconds. Then reverse your hand positions and do your right side.
for best results relax your body first by taking a deep breath and exhaling then remain this relaxed.

Unfortunately each person is different in terms of reaction to certain steroids. Not sure if you’re looking at taking these orally or through an injection but I put some links below to help you out.
