The clinical details provided in the question are not enough to reach a proper conclusion. This is probably best examined in person by a Neurologist or a Neurosurgeon. One of the common problems causing this would be a spinal nerve compression and that can be diagnosed through an MRI. There are multiple other possible causes which can be picked up after detailed clinical examination.
Next Steps
consult a Neurosurgeon or Neurologist.
