Reason For Pain In Lower Back With Numbness And Pins And Needles In The Left Foot ?
I have pain sometimes in my lower back but mostly down my left leg, sometimes my left foot goes numb or I have pins and needles in it. The pain in my leg is hard to cope with and can be in different areas of the leg, if I am standing still it is even worse. Can you tell me what this may be please. Thank you.
