What Causes Pain In Back And Left Leg?

Hello. I have been experiencing back/left leg pain. I noticed when I rub the inside of my left shin, it is quite painful but it helps. But I have if you large your lumps on the side of my shin and actually an area on my left knee as well. Could this be related to back issues?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to sciatica pain. I suggest using painkillers such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day. I also suggest gentle stretchering exercise. If the symptoms continue, I suggest consulting a neurologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
