Might be related: Skin pain can be from one of several possible causes. A doctor's exam is needed (primary care doctor or dermatologist). A person with shingles can have burning pain of the skin where the rash breaks out. Sometimes nerve irritation (anywhere along the nerve from the spine to the skin surface) can cause pain sensations in the lower back, thigh, or elsewhere. An in-person or video exam is helpful.

Question 7

i have been having pain in my left leg, w/ pain going into foot. pain is hot like, numbish, kinda asleep like. could this be a prob w/ l5&s1 region?

Accepted Answer

Many things: Many things can cause this type of discomfort.  Numbness and pain in extremities can be secondary to a musculoskeletal cause such as your back.  However, in the right setting a neurologic cause or disease such as diabetes could present similarly.   Certainly, this is the L5-S1 region, but pain does not indicate your back or spinal cord is the cause.  See a doctor for a proper exam!
