Detailed Answer:
Dear Ma'am, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but I would recommend that you get a. ct scan on your lumber vertebrae as your symptoms are most probably are due to pressure excreted on your nerve roots due to a lumber disc herniation or prolapse.. This leads to nerve irritation and symptoms of tingling, pain and numbness that might affect lower back , buttocks , hip and down to legs according to the level of affected vertebrae. I hope you find this helpful. If you don't have any other clarifications then please close the discussion..
