Hi. I have been having back problems now going on for the past two years. My back has been bad since November. I am doing physio with traction. I get a lot of pain now in my lower leg especially at night which keep me awake. Along with that I get pain on my right side in the hip area when I roll over and find it hard to walk when I get out of bed. What could be causing all this pain?
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. Since the pain is radiating to the leg, it's likely to be due to a disc herniation at the level of spine which is causing a compression of the nerve roots. It is best to get an MRI scan done for a proper diagnosis and further treatment. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
