Back and Leg Pain: I would definitely start by looking at his back. The leg pain may be a version of sciatica caused on a back condition. See a orthopedist, physiatrist, chiropractor, neurologist, or osteopath for this.They all tend to do a good job on this. Dr rich blake.

Back pain: The back pain can be caused by muscle strain, spinal stenosis, ruptured disc, nerve impingement ... The treatment depends on the cause of the pain. It seems like your father might have nerve impingement. I recommend him seeking help from a pain management doctor or orthopedic doctor. He might benefit from a comprehensive evaluation and treatment.
