Back and leg pain
I am having lower back pain and leg pain from past 2 yrs. It started from a niggle in the right hand side lower back at a particular point. Then it started paining in the right leg in thighs and calf. Now pain is more when I sit for long and also while climbing stairs. Now the pain is complete lower back and both the legs. I have tried a lot of doctors but nobody has been able to diagnose it properly. Please advise.

Hello,you may need MRI of LS spine to diagnose the problem , it could be disc herniation compressing on nerve roots that's why you having back pain and leg pain. ... consult orthopedic surgeon with MRI scan .Even if you have any other problem MRI will help in diagnosing it .
