I have a lower back problem causing left leg pain while walking, and I am taking medicines like Pregabalin M OD and Tramadol, but I still have discomfort. What should I do?

Asked by Female, 35 · 1 month ago

Lower back issues causing leg pain while walking may be due to nerve compression, such as a disc problem or spinal stenosis. If medicines are not giving enough relief, further evaluation, such as imaging, may be needed. Gentle physiotherapy, posture care and avoiding strain can help reduce symptoms. Consult a doctor to review your treatment and adjust the plan if required.

You may need further evaluation since your current medications, Pregabalin M OD (which helps nerve pain) and Tramadol, are not fully relieving your discomfort.

🩺 Next Steps to Consider

  • Consult a spine specialist or neurologist to reassess your condition and pain management plan.
  • Imaging studies like an MRI of the lower back might be needed to identify nerve compression or other causes.
  • Physical therapy or other non-drug treatments could help improve symptoms alongside medication.

⚠️ When to Seek Urgent Care

  • If you develop weakness, numbness, or loss of bladder/bowel control, seek immediate medical attention.
