Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello!

Thank you for asking on HCM!

I understand your concern and would like to explain that your symptoms radicular pain, irradiating by a possible disc displacement in your lumbar spine.

A knee injury, involving the nerves would not cause pain in the thigh, or even more on your back, but it would cause pain locally or irradiating down the calf.

I recommend consulting with a neurologist for a careful physical examination , a lumbar spine x ray and a nerve conduction study of the lower limbs.

A lumbar CT scan may be necessary to examine better your lumbar vertebral column.

Meanwhile, I would advise you to have some rest and take some painkillers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen.

Hope to have been of help!

Best wishes!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may be different type of pain of knee joint and back pain and below the knee pain, back pain could be due to spinal disease and blow the knee pain could be because of nerve compression in spinal cord, information may be changed according to age and gender because you have not given this information here, but this can be managed with "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg" once in day, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
