Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was bending over moving something and experienced a shooting pain from my lower back, on the left side, all the way down to my ankle. Its been about 5 days and I experience pain in my lower back and my thigh is real tight. My lower leg feels as if it is asleep. How have I injured myself and what should I do?
For lower back pain you can take pain killer like biozobid-plus or akilos-p only when the pain is worse enough or disturb your daily routine along with some calcium supplements like shalcal-d or toscal-gem once daily. I will also advice you to sleep on plain surface. Do some physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist.
