Brief Answer:
Can be due to renal stone.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the lower part of pelvis can be due to a renal stone. If the pain is radiating to the leg with some tingling and numbness in the area then it can be due to a prolapsed disc.
If you can bear your weight on the leg and can walk then any bone injury is less likely. It is best to get an ultrasound scan of the abdomen done to find pout the cause.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
