Sound like sciatica: You should seek an evaluation by your pcp, it could be you have you have irritation of a nerve root however being so young i doubt it.You may need to have an emg(electromyogram) that should ruleout that codition easily.

2 problems: Sometimes back pain can radiate down your legs and cause both sites to hurt or you could have a back problem and treatable vein disease in your legs. Make appointment with doctor for your back and vein specialist for ultrasound of your veins. www.phlebology.org to find doc in your area. In the meantime, wear medical compression stockings in the day to help prevent or diminish leg pain & local ice.
