Can An Earlier Back Injury Cause Stiffness And Pain In Legs, Knees And Calves?

I have a previous back I injury that I t thought was fixed until recently. M opposite leg down to the back of my knee is causing pain, stiffness, and cramping in my calf. I have developed a pronounced dent above my buttocks below my hip. It started with no pain but was hard to the touch. Now it is tender n my stretches do not seem to be helping
