Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It can be due to a herniated disc in your vertebral column or back bone. Get one back X ray done. Because of herniated disc most likely a nerve is trapped which is causing this issue.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
