hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As per your symptoms it appears more of a lumbar disc degenerative disease. due to which the disc is compressing the nerve roots and leading to radiating symptoms of pain and such.

I will Advice to undergo a thorough clinical examination and MRI of the lumbar spine to understand the signs , symptoms and extent of nerve root compression.

Treatment
Physical therapy like therapeutic ultrasound therapy, TENS therapy and exercises has been help ful to get maximum recovery in patients with similar symptoms in my clinical practice.
