Hi.
Thanks for your query.
The history of pain in the hip and the leg along with tingling and history of leg going dead at times. There is history of falling at University.
What is there to be embarrassed about such a problem. You need to go to a Doctor, get a clinical examination done and an MRI of the lower spine to see the cause of the compression on the spinal cord to find out the culprit and get it treated.
Till then avoid anything including weight lifting or so.
Take Ibuprofen round the clock as an anti-inflammatory medicines
I find this answer helpful
