The sacral spinal nerve 1 (S1) is a spinal nerve of the sacral segment. [1] It originates from the spinal column from below the 1st body of the sacrum.
Signs and Symptoms. Radiculopathy is a diagnosis commonly made by physicians in primary care specialties, orthopedics, physiatry, and neurology. The diagnosis may be suggested by symptoms of pain, numbness, paresthesia, and weakness in a pattern consistent with the distribution of a particular nerve root, such as sciatica.
Radiculopathy; Although they are most frequently reported along sacral regions, they are rarely seen in other locations along the spine. [15] Women are more likely to exhibit symptoms [16] [17] They can also appear in clusters or bilaterally along the spine, thus symptoms can be unilateral, bilateral, or with symptoms more dominant on one side ...
The sciatic nerve comprises nerve roots L4, L5, S1, S2, and S3 in the spine. [26] These nerve roots merge in the pelvic cavity to form the sacral plexus and the sciatic nerve branches from that. Sciatica symptoms can occur when there is pathology anywhere along the course of these nerves. [27]
S2 supplies many muscles, either directly or through nerves originating from S2. They are not innervated with S2 as single origin, but partly by S2 and partly by other spinal nerves. They are most commonly known to govern the toes. The muscles are: sphincter urethrae membranaceae; gluteus maximus muscle; piriformis; obturator internus muscle
[7] Spinal stenosis occurs in as many as 8% of people. [4] It occurs most commonly in people over the age of 50. [9] Males and females are affected equally often. [10] The first modern description of the condition is from 1803 by Antoine Portal, and there is evidence of the condition dating back to Ancient Egypt. [11]

In cervical spondylosis, a patient may be presented with dull neck pain with neck stiffness in the initial stages of the disease. As the disease progresses, symptoms related to radiculopathy (due to compression of exiting spinal nerve by narrowed intervertebral foramen) or myelopathy (due to compression on the spinal cord) can occur.
