Varies : There are a number of possibilities, I would not hesitate to be seen. Among the more common causes are an area of spinal stenosis, in which the nerve canal is narrowed and pinching on a nerve; or an area of instability such as in an instability, such as on a spondylolisthesis. A detailed ex and appropriate studies would likely yield an accurate diagnosis.
