A real pain in the ?: Radiating pain down the leg certainly would bring nerve irritation to mind. Whether the hobbling is due to pain and/or muscle weakness has to be determined. Depending on the severity, trying an anti-inflammatory and rest my stem the tide. If not improving get yourself to a professional for thorough evaluation.
