Hello,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
The symptoms of your query are highly suggestive of a possible radiculopathy.
In simple language, the nerve is getting compressed in your back, possibly by a disc.
I would recommend testing of an MRI LS Spine with screen whole spine, as soon as possible.
Do let us know the report as soon as possible.
I would also like to know what treatment you have taken so far.
Do respond as soon as possible for further information.
Best of luck, Dr Mittal
