General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

It may be due to nerve compression at lumbar level due to disc collapse. Still for further assessment you may require complete hemogram, MRI back, nerve conduction studies after spine surgeon consultation. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition.

You may require tablet pregabalin and multivitamin after consultation. Continue physical therapy. In case of not getting relief you may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
