i have extreme down my right leg starting in my gluteus maximus down the front of my leg. I cannot walk on it because of the extreme pain. I'm taking Aleve and staying off of it. I can sit down without pain. My primary care physician cannot see me for 2 weeks. I'm thinking of going to a Chiropractor. Tuesday I worked out at the fitness center and did some stretches for my lower back. Nothing I hadn't done before. (I work out 4 or 5 times a week.) I am a 79 year old female on no medication. I called one specialist and the gal said it sounded like a back problem and the doctor does not deal with any back of neck problems.
