What Causes Pain In The Lower Back And Buttocks?
it started as lower back pain, now I have severe pain in the buttocks radiating down my legs to my toes...currently in PT..Pain is more intense after PT. Pain is on both sides. Different body movements is very difficult. Sitting is becoming uncomfortable..After lying down for 15 minutes worsens the pain. Its very difficult to get out of bed due to pain...I m been over with weakness in my legs..have to have help to get up...a warm bath is the only relief. The pain is feels like cramps, my legs get very stiff.

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Lumbosacral spine problems can be suspected in your case. A physical examination by orthopedician and x ray will be helpful to rule out this. Vitamin D and b12 levels in blood should be checked. If it is low then supplements should be taken also.
Thanks.
