Brief Answer:
Lumbar spondylosis. Needs Xray and MRI

Detailed Answer:
Hi there

Thanks for the query

Usually pain radiating from the lower back to the legs could be due to slip disc and pinched nerves.

Avoid bending forwards or lifting weights. Apply hot packs to the affected region. Take Tablet Diclofenac with Thicolchicoside combination twice a day after meals and Tablet Rabeprazole twice a day for 5 days before meals. Also take Tablet Pregabalin 75mg twice a day for a month. This will help with the 'nerve' pain that you experience and give you considerable relief.

Do get an Xray and MRI of the lumbosacral spine and upload for my reference. This will help to confirm the problem.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
