Suggest Treatment For Lower Back Pain And Leg Pain

I am a 57 year old male in relative good health. I weigh 170lbs. For about a month I ve been suffering with aches in my legs and lower back. Mostly noticeable when I get up to walk. I have scoliosis, so I don t know if this may be related to that. My deceased father also suffered terribly from Rhuematoid Arthritis. I have contacted my doctor s office to make an appointment.

Hi
thank you for trusting HCM
I read your query and understand your concern
In my opinion I think your symptoms are developed as long time discopathy changes
Don't worry there is nothing to be worried too much
As you probably will hear from your doctor you will start some pain killers for days and schedule a spine (lumbar) CT or MR to see the discopathy
If your were one of my patient I will reccomend to wear a lumbar fortress woch will protect your lumbar spine and maybe cure you
Hope my answer will help you
Stay healthy
Regards
