Reply to Dr Anil Munjal's Post: It was around the L4 L5 area, and it ended up being a cyst.
I am 5'7", 215lbs, I have high cholesterol but not extremely high I don't have specifics. I don't have high blood pressure, and sugar levels have never been a problem.
I also have been having aching in my lower extremities when I am at rest on calf/shin area of both legs.
Other than that I am fairly healthy.
I do suffer from depression but that has been a constant for about 25 years.

What is your reasoning and what are some of your ideas as to what this can be? The answer I received from you is was very generic.

Hello,

Your symptoms are suggestive pressure in between L4& L5 level. But unless I see the picture of X- Ray or CT scan rest is anybody's guess. There is a little possibility that a fresh cyst is appeared & a fresh mass is developing.
