Get it evaluated: pain in the lower back that radiates to the leg may represent a variety of problems with the lumbar spine or the discs that separate the vertebrae. Because certain activities may aggravate the problem and treatment such as physical therapy may alleviate it, it is important to see your physician and have the problem defined and treated.
