Could be many things: Usually pinched nerves aren't relieved by standing, walking, or movement. So, it's good to have your doctor take a look at it, and make sure there's nothing there on physical exam, before s/he does a musculoskeletal exam. So, it could be many things until it's examined physically. Then, your diagnosis will be forthcoming.
