TY - JOUR T1 - A pain in the tuches AU - Gropp C Y1 - 2012/12/19 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2012.68311 JO - JAMA SP - 2467 EP - 2468 VL - 308 IS - 23 N2 - In the fuzzy way that things look at the periphery of our awareness, I pictured my sciatic nerve somehow romantically as long, sinuous, and vulnerable, and now irritated because it was impinged upon near its spinal passage. Just the way a psychiatrist, with only vague reminiscences of anatomy, might imagine how a nerve looks: thin, long, and annoying.
