Sciatic pain is the symptom, you will need to address the cause. Please don't do any exercises that aren't tailored to you. You could make things worse. If you've had it since high school then it really needs addressing by a professional. Fortunately for me there was no underlying injury and my root cause was a combination of sitting posture, walking gait, muscle tone and genetics (nerve going through glute) Having the regular physio sessions were by far the most helpful start and the at-home exercises just re-inforced the improvements made. A couple of general resources I found helpful are the exercises on fixing forward head posture on YouTube and the videos by Kelly Starrett on fixing sitting posture. For anyone suffering with chronic back pain - please give physio / chiro a chance. Don't just take painkillers for the rest of your life. It can get better.
