I recommend consulting a spine clinic to obtain an accurate diagnosis and treatment options. Bring any xrays or MRI that you may have had. It is unusual to have bilateral radiation of pain from spinal pathology although it can occur. If there is no spine clinic near you, consult an orthopedic specialist at the orthopedic department at a university hospital near you.
