    Hello Jack, sounds like it could be Sciatica, a nerve running across the low back just above the butt crease, the sciatic nerve. Not diagnosing, just a guess. Sounds like it could be that it is causing pain for you. If that nerve is impinged

    it will and can cause terrible pain, numbness, tingling from the nerve all the way down and into the feet. It can become unbearable pain and take the joy from life while trying to live with it. I had ir for several years.

    You should see an orthopedic specialist for some scans and xray to diagnose

    whatever the problem actually is. It probably won't get better until you go find

    out what is causing the pain and problems. I am placing a medical web link below so you can check it out and see what you think once you read it. Hope

    it helps you. God bless.

    So..

    I found many interesting info about sciatica here: http://curesciatica.toptips.org/

    While looking for a miracle cure, it has to be understood that sciatica pain in itself is not a disease. It is actually a symptom or a group of symptoms with an underlying cause that needs to be targeted if some sort of permanent pain relief is what one is looking for. But one thing is absolutely clear. Incorporating a few exercises that have a beneficial effect on sciatica pain in daily regime is of great help and whether a patient is taking drugs or not, these exercises ensure that his muscles are kept in a toned condition that lessen any flare up of pain. Just a few stretching exercises can bring about a drastic change in the levels of pain and signify the importance of exercise in the management of sciatica pain.

    Cheers ;)
