What can i do about back pain which leads to pain in the leg?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See MD: Low back pain going down the leg sounds like sciatica, ie one of your lumbar spinal nerves is irritated. This can often improve on it's own, but if pain lasts greater than 2 weeks see your physician. There are many non-surgical options including medication, therapy, and injections.
