What Causes Lower Back Pain, Numbness In The Left Foot And Both Hands?
Okay, I have lower back pain where it feels my lower back is sunken in until it gets closer to my bottom and it feels like my spine is swollen there. I have numbness in my left foot and both hands alot of the time. And left my left hip constantly hurts. It feels like it is going to pop out of place. I can t get comfortable. I have to sleep with a pillow between my.legs to keep my leg elevated but I still wake up hurting. Its becoming a daily, constant problem.

Hello,
Lower back pain, numbness in left foot and hands can be due to compression of nerve roots. Compression of nerve roots can lead to symptoms of pain, tingling or irritation in the area of supply. I suggest you to consult your orthopedician for clinical assessment, relevant investigations and thus management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
