Hi,
If you are elderly then it seems due to some pinched nerve pressure due to degenerative changes in your lower spines.
This might be due to stiffness in back muscles as well.
When nerves get pressure or irritation you may get pain and when it is released then you might not feel pain.
Go for x-ray lower spines.
Go for back extension exercises daily.
Take calcium, vitamin A and D supplements.
Ok and take care.
