Having lower back pain which radiates down from the buttock till the left leg ankle with lots of tightness in the hamstring muscle and the calf muscle and nerve tingling in the hamstring muscle and the left leg ankle
Lots of numbness in both the leg feet soles only.
There is only numbness in the rights leg feet soles
