What can i do for back pain that spread to my ankles?

Lots of treatment : This may represent radiculopathy which is often initially treated nonoperatively with various combinations of pain meds, steroids, rest and exercises. Sometimes surgery is recommended as a last resort. It is important that a physician first diagnosis the problem accurately so the correct treatment can be initiated.
