Hello,
It may be due to stenosis.
For that you may require MRI back, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation.
You may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation.
Take tablet pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation.
Continue physical therapy.
Avoid forward bending.
Hope I have answered your query...
Let me know if I can assist you further.
