General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello
It is due to the compression of nerves. Due to the prolapse of intervertebral discs. The pain is radiating to both lower limbs as well due to this only. So a decompression surgery should be done. Take tab tramadol (50) for pain, Cap gabapentin(100) Once daily.
