Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Pain in musculoskeletal structures with radiation to legs and difficulty to walk are likely related to nerve compression at lumbar and sacral area. You need an MRI to sort out and localise the place of nerve compressions.
At age of 61, painkillers, exercises, conservative therapies, physiotherapies etc and good posture maintenance will help the symptoms. The doctor may suggest epidural steroid injections if need be. Talk to your pain management expert and let them help you in this regard.
