Nerve pain: It sounds like you are experiencing nerve pain. The nerve pain can come from nerve impingement in the lumbar spine area, or peripheral nerve impingement. You would need an emg/ncv to get more information about the nerve pain. You should seek help from a pain management doctor. You might benefit from a comprehensive evaluation and treatment.
