Brief Answer:
Could ne pressure on one of the nerves.

Detailed Answer:
Hi , I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic surgeon.

In my opinion , there is a possibility of pain due to pressure on one of the nerves probably coming from spinal canal. The pain in this condition may come as a sharp shooting pain off and on.

I suggest MRI of back. Start mild pain killers and a combination of pregabalin + methycobalamine.

Thanks for the question. Please feel free to ask any other question.
