Re: siatic nerve? hip injury

I don't know that I have had a hip injury but I suspect I have a sciatic nerve problem that has pain radiating from my knee to my hip. Some day's are better than others. What can I do to help this problem. It seems worse on days I wear shoes with a heal. I was diagnosed 11 years ago with a dislocated patella, could the sciatic pain be from that? It also seems worse when I ride in a car.
