What Causes Severe Pain In Legs And Lower Back?

I was standing in cupboard, reached, and lower back buckled and I could not bare weight and fell to floor. Now I am walking bent over but takes me an hour to walk 10 steps away. legs keep giving out due to the pain in lower back. I don t have a doctor although I called one to confirm that I could use them for follow up after being seen by urgent care. The problem is the pain is so bad and I know urgent care cannot medicate for that. That new doctor does not see anyone on weekends. I do not have access to any emergent care for at least 4 more hours. Is the ER recommended. Sorry for your time, I don t have a card to pay for this.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some injury in your spines or back muscle injuries giving rise severe pain on movements.
Take complete rest without movements at back till you approach your doctor.
Take NSAID medicine like Diclophenac, paracetamol combination for acute pain.
Ok and take care.
