What are the common causes of low back and leg pain?

Lumbago and leg pain is a very common symptom, especially for modern people with fast pace of life and unhealthy living habits, who often stand for a long time, bow their heads for a long time and lack exercise, and the incidence of lumbago and leg pain is higher. First, lumbar muscle strain mainly leads to low back pain. It is especially common in wet and cold weather, especially in people who need to sit for a long time. The main symptoms are diffuse dull pain in the back, backache, chills, skin numbness, muscle spasm and dyskinesia, and the pain is obvious when getting up in the morning. Second, lumbar disc herniation. This is also a common cause of low back pain. Unlike lumbar muscle strain, low back pain is often accompanied by radiation pain and numbness of lower limbs, and the onset is urgent. There is often a history of lumbar sprain, and severe low back pain occurs after injury. Third, thoracolumbar tuberculosis. Patients with this disease often have a history of tuberculosis or contact with tuberculosis, with a long course of disease and low back pain as the main symptom. Fourth, intraspinal tumors. One of the typical symptoms of the disease is that the pain or abnormal sensation continues to increase, and bed rest can not be relieved, which is different from lumbar disc herniation.

Fifth, ankylosing spondylitis. This disease is common among young men and is hereditary. It mainly involves the spine, axial bones and major joints of limbs, and is characterized by fibrosis, ossification and rigidity of intervertebral discs and nearby tissues. The disease develops slowly, and early diagnosis is difficult, but early diagnosis and treatment can obviously reduce the disability rate. Patients with low back pain may be accompanied by chest back pain, neck stiffness, joint swelling, lower limb pain and so on. After a long rest, the affected part has a sense of stiffness, which is relieved or disappeared after the activity. Sixth, aseptic avascular necrosis of femoral head. The early symptoms are pain in the front, lateral and buttocks of hip joint, which is aggravated after exercise, but the waist symptoms are not obvious, and the tenderness and knocking pain of hip joint are obvious. Passive exercise of hip joint can cause pain. Seventh, lumbar spondylolisthesis with spinal stenosis. This is also one of the common causes of low back and leg pain. Symptoms are very similar to lumbar disc herniation. Eighth, lumbar spinal stenosis. The disease is more common in the elderly, with slow onset, long-term low back pain and leg pain, which are aggravated when standing and walking, and relieved when squatting.
