Sciatica: The pain that you describe is likely due to a pinched nerve root in the low back (sciatica). Compartment syndrome occurs after trauma to the lower leg or arm and is a medical emergency. Bleeding occurs in a fascial compartment of the arm or leg that leads to pressure on and damage to muscles and nerves. See a neurosurgeon for evaluation and treatment of the back and leg pain.
