What Causes Pain In The Lower Back Radiating To The Hips?

I have low back pain radiating into my hips. I put ice on it about 4 hours ago for a 30 minute time. I noticed about 1.5 hours ago large red splotches on my back where the ice was. The splotches are still there, no itching but have not reduced in size. I am not allergic to cold.

Hello,

For pain, you should undergo X-ray lumbar spine and see a local doctor after it. For patch on skin, wait for some time.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
