Possible : Do you recall a specific moment when you first noticed the pain and/or what you were doing? Have you been doing any heavy lifting? It's not uncommon for lumbosacral pain to radiate to the hip(s) and down the leg(s).Continue with the ibuprofen 600-800mg every 6 hours and try a heating pad as well. If no improvement in the next few days, may need to consider brief physical therapy.
