Sent to Health Experts January 04 10:46 AM

I have back pain very low on my back. It started a little over two weeks ago and has progressively got worse. I don't remember a specific event to strain it. Recently, I have also experienced upper leg pains as well. I hurts most while sitting or when repositioning from sitting to standing. Advice?

It appears as though you may have a pinched nerve which is being compressed during certain position. Your best bet is to see your doctor for exact location for proper treatment. If left untreated could cause further damage as well. Generally a Nerve conduction velocity test will determine this.
