At her Las Vegas show on New Years Eve, Adele can be seen hobbling across the stage.

“I’ve got two more. I’ve just got to get over to the other side of the stage,” she said, as seen in the clip. “I have to waddle these days, as I have really bad sciatica.”

Sciatica refers to nerve pain from an injury or irritation to the sciatic nerve, which originates in your bottom area and runs right down your legs.

Up to 40 per cent of Brits is will experience the condition at some point in their lifetime, according to the The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence.

The sometimes debilitating condition is known to usually better on its own in around four to six weeks.

But in cases where symptoms progressively get worse, people are advised to visit their GP.

What are the 4 symptoms of sciatica?

Sciatica can affect anywhere along the sciatic nerve which includes your bottom, back of your legs or your foot.

According to the NHS these are the symptoms you should be looking out for:

1. pain– stabbing, burning or shooting
2. tingling – like pins and needles
3. numb
4. weak

You may experience more pain when moving, sneezing or coughing.

You may also have back pain, but it’s not usually as bad as the pain in your bottom, leg or foot.
