The correct option is C Sciatica

A.Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia, a general term for memory loss and other cognitive abilities serious enough to interfere with daily life.

B. Parkinson's disease affects the nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine.Parkinson's disease symptoms include muscle rigidity, tremors, and changes in speech and gait.

C.Sciatica -The sciatic nerve is the largest spinal nerve in the body. It originates in a bundle of nerves in the lower back and passes through the pelvis and down the back of each thigh. A pinched Sciatic nerve causes sciatica. Its symptoms include lower back pain that spreads through hip, to the back of the thigh, and down the inside of the back of leg via sciatic nerve., characterized by pain, tingling, numbness and weakness. Hence the neural disorder which is caused due to pinched spinal nerves is Sciatica.

D. Down’s syndrome - also known as trisomy 21, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of all or part of a third copy of chromosome 21. It is typically associated with physical growth delays, mild to moderate intellectual disability, and characteristic facial features.

So, the correct option is 'Sciatica'.
