Hip leg and knee pain

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi, I'm 49 and in good health and weight. 3 months ago I had increasingly pain at my lower back that came on over a couple of days. It was the worst pain ever and could not even move in bed for over a week. It has reduced to lesser pain now but still very painfully from left hip and groin area down front of my thigh to bottom of knee cap and to ankle. I'm on pain killers naproxen, gabapentin and codeine which takes the edge off it. I often end up being bent over because of pain and sometimes my leg gives way. What is causing this constant pain and how can I cure it please?

    Neurologist will sort out your problems.  EMG and MRI sound like the way to go.
