Abstract
The objective of the current study is to explore coping mechanisms and pain dread experienced by individuals with sciatica. Sciatica, characterized by severe pain along the sciatic nerve, is a common symptom. People who suffer from chronic pain often have psychological problems. The restrictions and mobility problems that follow the pain reduce functioning, leading to further distress for the individual to cope with. The sample for this study (N=213) was taken from the clinics and rehabilitation centres of the Hazara division. Three scales of assessment: Visual Analog Scale (VAS-UV), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-UV), and Pain Cope Inventory (PCI-UV) were used. In the context of therapeutic methods, individuals with sciatica have different coping strategies and a dread of pain. In addition, coping and fear of pain are all affected by gender and mode of treatment. The findings highlight the importance of comprehensive research and intervention for sciatica pain.
