I had a terrible backache a week ago. Now I have a problem when I go to stand up, my right leg will not hold me up. I have to hold on to something when I get up or I will fall.It hurts real bad when I stand up. If I stand up slow and tuck my hips under my shoulders (so to speak) it is less painful.Do you know what this can be?
