Pain from right lower back down outside of hip down leg to ankle. Outside right ankle sometimes feels as if it is wet and cold. The wet and cold sensation on ankle is new over the last few days. I experience a lot of tingling as well as pain down hip and. Leg. When this occurred in the past, I would experience more of a burning sensation my ankle/leg. Wondering why the sudden change.

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
The symptoms you describe could be caused by the following medical conditions:
-Lombosciatica given the trajectory you describe
-Osteoarthritis of lombar vetebrae/right hip
-Radiculalgia
-Neuropathy
-Metabolic/ionic imbalances
No matter the cause, treatment principle is almost the same.Treatment options include: different lines of pain medications depending on intensity of pain, steroid shots/infiltration occasionally, physiotherapy or surgery.
I will suggest you see your Doctor for examination and management.A CT scan or simple X ray of your hip/back may be helpful to reveal the exact cause of the problem.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
I find this answer helpful
