[|Human|] My lower back has been hurting. The pain has gotten so bad that I cant lift my six pound Chihuahua. I have also been having leg pains in my right leg. Last week it hurt so bad I limped arond all week. And on too of all this I have recently discovered that when I sit down I go paralized from the waist down. Please help me
[|AI|]  Dear friend ... Welcome to Chat Doctor I read your concern, and it seems like sciatica which imitates nerves and causing pain and feeling of getting paralyzed like sensation . There is nothing to worry ... You can do Spinal X-ray or CT imaging studies to know underlying causative factors involved in triggering pain sensation. I would suggest you to have hot compression at site of pain and NSAIDs will help to ease pain. Regular mild exercise and correct posture during sleeping / sitting will prevent further episode of pain. You can ask me if you have more queries... Regards Chat Doctor. Kingston John David
