Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I hurt my lower back last sunday when I went to pick up an empty box in my camper. The next day I went to see a doctor and she gave me some muscle relaxers and told me to take Aleve. On friday I was walking up a few steps and my legs gave out and I fell. I sat for a while and when it was time to leave and I fell again going down the same steps. My legs have felt very week the last few days. I had my left knee scoped in June and carpal tunnel surgery in July.
In my opinion, I would advise you to get your self-shown to an orthopedist and get your physical examination and x-ray and process accordingly as you are describing my weakness in your lower limbs.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Fahim Sheik
