Hi doctor,
I have a pain that runs from the left lower back to the stomach, onto the left thigh, and all the way to my left foot. I was stretching sideways while sitting with stretched legs when I heard a loud click. I cannot lift my leg straight to my chest, and I feel pain in my hip while lying down.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
You must have locked your vertebral facet joint in a wrong pattern, due to which the L5-S1 nerve entrapment has occurred. As a result, you are getting the radiating pain. It is a case ofradiculopathy, so get a seven-day physiotherapy session consisting of the following. Grade 1 mobilization followed by grade 5 manipulation of L5 - S1 section of the vertebrae,TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) for 15 minutes on left leg.Ultrasound (1MHz). And do the following exercises at home.
Regards.
