Sorry nobody has answered you yet; first thing to do is go to doc for official diagnosis. If it turns out that it'll be a chronic problem, we can offer tips here.

I had major sciatic problems when my child was small - it can be very painful and annoying. Ogun's right - check out a reputable chiropractor (maybe referred by your Doctor).. My chriopractor suggested swimming (eg: backstroke)and some other exercises that can lessen the pain, but you really should discover what exactly the problem is first.
