Hi,
It appears you are suffering from back pain, probably the lower back.
It could be a lumbar spondylosis, compressing the nerves leading to pain and weakness in thigh and legs.
The pain should increase with more weight on the back and reduce with rest.
You can meet an orthopedic surgeon and get an x-ray done for the lower spine. It should help in confirmation.
It might require lumbar spine support along with physiotherapy.
Any further queries, happy to help again
