Hi, it appears that you have pressure symptoms of the nerves supplying the lower extremities, lower back. I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe injections of vitamin B1, 6, and 12. and pain killers when there is pain. Thank you.
