Hi,
I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you. The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a possible nerve compression at the spine. It will need the following 2 tests to confirm the diagnosis.
1. Nerve conduction study.
2. MRI LS spine.
In case of the confirmation of the diagnosis, you will need to start physiotherapy and medicine like pregabalin.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
