Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain In Upper Leg, Pelvis And Sciatica
I have severe pain in my upper right leg, pelvic area, and sciatica. At times I can barely walk. The more I am on my feet or walking, the more it hurts. It feels like a hot poker and a toothache all in one. Can you tell me what this can be? I am small and not over weight.
