Contoured pillows are shaped to fit comfortably between your legs at the knee, and can help reduce lumbar spine pressure and keep your body aligned.Jun 3, 2018
The sciatic nerve starts in the lower back, travels down the back of the leg, and ends at the knee where it branches into the tibial and common peroneal nerves. A person may experience sciatica anywhere along the sciatic nerve, including the knee. Therefore, sciatica may be a cause of knee pain.
Common knee symptoms that you may experience when you have sciatica include: A warm sensation, sharp pain, or dull ache in the front, side, and/or back of the knee.
It’s more comfortable to lie on the pain-free side with the sciatic side on the top. The knees should be bent with a pillow placed between them to support the spine and pelvis. If there is a gap between the waist and the mattress, place a small pillow there. A pillow may be needed for arm support as well.
