Hi, I've Had Pain In My Lower Back And Side

Hi, I've had pain in my lower back and side of leg where the butt meets the thigh. Also pain I'm the front thigh area. MRI reveals that I have a pinched nerve on the L5 . The doc says that front thigh pain should be a pinch on the L2 or 3 . I'm in pain . I had a cortesone shot and 2 medradose packs. They helped but for a short time. I'm taking Aleve and Tylenol to ease the pain . Sometimes they work and other times they do not. I cannot stand more than 3 hrs at one of my jobs. Really getting aggravated. I see the doc next week. I also tried a chiropractor which did not help. I'm also doing some sciatic stretches. Thanks for any help. Stacie
