Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: story, guide, question
Headline: short first-person recovery or help-seeking line (e.g., “How my herniated disc healed” / “I had surgery today”). Write in first person, multiple-paragraph posts (medium–long). Tone: candid, emotional but practical. Upvoted: detailed personal timelines, clear treatments tried, concrete tips, hopeful outcomes; avoid vague bragging or outright ads — ask mods before posting product/self-promo.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/sciatica's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
