It sounds like a slipped disk. You need to tell your Doctor. He will probably get an MRI to check it out.

I have Sciatica and my symptoms are a numb foot and my calf feels like the muscle is pulled.  I had an MRI and its a pinched S1 nerve from a bulging disk.  I know someone else who had sciatica from a L5 herniation and nerve pinch and there was buttock and ankle soreness.  Usually sciatica goes lower than just the buttocks but not always.  My Doc told me that it is possible to injure a disk by sneezing or vomiting if you already have a weakness there.  Also, many times its just muscle related and goes away with time.  He might want to try massage, or talk to his Doc about getting muscle relaxer and anti-inflammatory meds if he doesn't get better.  The next step is an MRI diagnosis if it doesn't respond any in a few weeks. I was told that it usually takes about 6 weeks to heal from a disk problem. Good luck!

Pain down the leg is generally a pinched nerve in the back. As one ages the openings that once were large become constricted. It may also be a warning sign of something else going on in your back or hips.\nNerve pain is generally burning, biting, electrical in nature...it can rock you for a few minutes or last longer.\nTry laying flat and stretching..\nAge and or injury may add to you pain. See a doctor.

There are many things that cause numbness or strange sensations in the body.  I have some of this and have been checked by several doctors, but learned nothing. You can have a loss of circulation or a pinched or hurt nerve.  Have just tried to find something on the web, but no luck. You may want to check with a doctor, but the thing I try to do is get enough exercise and drink at least eight glasses of water every day.

I think u r having some problem with ur spine. Consult a good orthopedic physiotherapist who is trained from abroad such as australia, if the change in the position changes the pain then it must be related to the spine(back bone) problem, kidney stones can also give the same kind of pains.\nGo do sonography to rule that out.To get the temporary relief u can try hot packs + deep heating modalities such as short wave or infra red near ur physiotherapist.

it is a pain in your lower back that's a little bit sharper than a regular muscle ache- almost like a burning.  it will also feel like it's deeper in your body than a muscle ache (obviously).  the symptom is the pain.  drink lots of water and fruit juice (expecially cranberry) until you can seea doctor.

If you are having a bad pain in your foot, that means that the nerves there are responding to stimuli. Go see a doctor and ask him. There's a far, far, far outside chance that you could be getting feeling back

Sounds like a pinched nerve, (which would constitute the numb feeling and unable to move it as done before( get it checked out.

Persons with sciatica may experience some lower back pain, but the most common symptom is pain that radiates through one buttock and down the back of the adjoining leg. The most identified cause of the pain is compression or pressure on the sciatic nerve. The extent of the pain varies among individuals. Some people describe pain that centers in the area of the hip, and others perceive discomfort all the way to the foot. The quality of the pain also varies; it may be described as tingling, burning, prickly, aching, or stabbing. Onset of sciatica can be sudden, but it can also develop gradually. The pain may be intermittent or continuous. Certain activities, such as bending, coughing, sneezing, or sitting, may make the pain worse.\nChronic pain may arise from more than just compression on the nerve. According to some pain researchers, physical damage to a nerve is only half of the equation. A recent theory proposes that some nerve injuries result in a release of neurotransmitters and immune system chemicals that enhance and sustain a pain message. Even after the injury has healed or the damage has been repaired, the pain continues. Control of this abnormal type of pain is difficult.

I ride my bike every day at least, im a freestyle mountain biker and i'm also sponsored for downhill racing, a lot of times if you have pain in your lower back, its just stress on your muscles getting worked out and into shape again, it also might be that your pushing yourself to ride harder than you need to, taking non-prescription joint pills may help, but icing your back or taking an ice bath or really cold shower really helps

Do you know what the cause of your back pain is? Sometimes if you lift something heavy improperly, it will hurt a few days later (not at the time of the incident). Or sometimes it is related to women's periods. It could also be your chest that is sore, but you feel it in your back. Find out the cause and then you can work on ways to make it feel better. Heating pads are nice if the muscle is spasming or tight. Ice pads are good for new injuries, but only for the first 24 hrs. And of course massages are great. If you have the money invest in a few massage sessions (assuming that the damage done to your back is minor). Massages are cheap too, only about 50 dollars for an hour. And it's worth it when you walk away feeling great! Of course Motrin will help with the swelling. But if you can't get the pain under control, see a physician for an examination, some X-Rays and some better pain medication such as Vicodin. Good luck!

Honestly that sounds like me in my calculus class during 1st period.  Lower back pain can be caused by weak abdominal muscles, and headaches can be caused by dehydration.  Drink more water and see if that helps with the headaches, your memory, and maybe even your fatigue, and if you are a little overweight like I am, try doing some sit-ups, that can help with your back.

the pain down your leg is irritation to your sciatic nerve in your lower back.  you may have a protruding disk.  see a doctor as soon as possible.  for the time being, put a heating pad on your lower back, lay with legs propped up, take aleve or advis and don't lift anything

Its a very good possiblilty that it is a pinched nerve, most likely somewhere in your neck or shoulder.  This is the most likely reason for the numbness, unless you experience chest pain or tightness i would rule out any heart related issues.

Running is a very high-impact activity on your body.  One thing that you can do, and this sounds strange, but it can alleviate a lot of lower back pain as a result of running and other activities, is to do some light weight training exercises.  Supplement the running with weight-bearing exercise, and a lot of the pain should decrease.  \n\nYou can also try taking medication, but I'm sure you don't want to become dependent on that or anything.  You've already done well with picking out good shoes and a good surface, by the way.  \n\nAlso, there are a lot of stretching exercises you can do to strengthen the muscles in your lower back.  In the "sources" section, I'm giving you some links to check out to show some different stretches and things you can do to help.  Good luck!

Your back could be out of alignment, it could possibly be sciatica from sleeping in a weird position or on a bad mattress. Do you have pain or weakness any other time? I think you should ask a doc cuz unilateral weakness can be a warning sign for something bad.
