Brief Answer: My reply is below. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted your symptoms and wish to reassure you that your symptoms do not represent any serious neurological illness and there is no need to worry about them. The most likely cause could be pinching of nerves in neck and lower back region. This can be confirmed by doing MRI scan of spine. If MRI is normal, then, it can also be due to fibromyalgia. You would benefit from physiotherapy and medications such as pregabalin capsules. You should consult a neurologist for further treatment. I hope my reply has helped you. I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
