Tight hips can cause lower back pain and sciatica. Hip muscles can compress the sciatic nerve, resulting in discomfort, while tight lower back muscles limit blood flow to the lumbar region, causing pain and raising the risk of injury. Combining hip muscle stretches with back and abdominal poses enhances lumbar blood flow, reducing pain.
