Hello

Thanks for the query

Numbness with pain at the lower back could be a sign of an acute exacerbation however since you have been just off Tysabri it is unlikely you will have one so soon, it could be just a muscle catch.I advice you to see a neurologist soon for a clinical examination to know if everything is alright.

I hope I was help

Regards
