See your doctor: This sounds like you have some decent pathology going on in your back, including facet arthropathy and radicular (nerve irritation) signs. You will need full workup and treatment plan to manage these issues, as well as physical exam to determine what exactly is going on. If you have any changes in urination-leaking or can't pee, numbness on inside of thighs, go to er in case of cauda equina syndrome.
