A member asked:

I'm 23 and have been having burning pains in my lower back radiating down the front of my legs with stiffness for two years what is this ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lumbar radiculopathy: My guess is that you had a lumbar strain and the muscle spasm causing pressure on the nerve supplying these areas of back and leg. To get the correct diagnosis see a physician who with the aid of physical exam and imaging studies can diagnose your problem.
