What Causes Severe Pain In The Lower Left Back Radiating To The Leg?

Since 02/2016 I have had severe pain in my lower left back and down that leg. The Hospitals said that my MRIs show possible pinched nerve at the L5/4 all they will do is give me different pain medicine but that does not cure the problem. What can I do? also, I now have worse pain right before I pee or have a bowel movement,

For pain in lower left back take pain killers like biozobid-plus or combiflam only when the pain is worse enough or disturb your daily routine along with calcium supplements like shalcal or toscal-gem once daily. I also advice you to sleep on plain surface. Do some kind physiotherapy exercises after an expert opinion of physiotherapist. If still not improved then go for x-ray or MRI.
