Has anyone ever experienced any lower back pain radiating down to left leg?

Has anyone ever experienced any lower back pain radiating down to left leg?

Unfortunately yes. I have this all the time. Go see your doctor...it sounds very much like a pinched nerve...or what most folks call sciatica. It's your sciatic nerve that's giving you trouble I bet. I've been getting treatments for months now. I still have pain but at least my leg doesn't feel dead like it used to. Good luck!! I hope you can get it treated quickly and it goes away instead of what I have, which is months of treating it and the pain is still there...

I agree with GoWalking.. sciatic nerve. Mine is in my right leg. It's much better than it used to be but I still have flare ups. I would check with your doctor for sure. Unfortunatly we can't have advil but maybe you can get a prescription anti-inflammatory. Also, don't use heat. Most people normally go for the heating pad for back pain. Not good for sciatica because it makes it more inflammed. Use ice packs for 20 minutes at a time every hour or as needed. Muscle relaxors help too. Good luck. Hope u feel better.

See...doctors are all different in terms of what they allow you to do. I take Neurontin and a combination med with an anti-inflammatory and prilosec and she's fine with me taking it. But then again, I've no fluid in my band so that might have something to do with it.

Thank y'all for your response...
