  • Hello,

    It certainly means that you have a sciatica because your pain is linked with your lower back. It’s like an irradiating pain. I advise you to see a physiotherapist 🤗

  • Hello, first of all you should see a doctor, specialized in the knee or sport. Then see if you need some extra examination or begin a treatment based on medication or exercices.

  • Hello, Of course, you don't have to keep pain. To obtain complete examinations (view of the internal structures), you must consult a doctor/ an orthopedist.

  • Probably go to see your GP first. He’ll probably make a full check-up and give you some sessions of physiotherapy.
    A other solution is to see an osteopath and make a global traitement and réajustement of your body.

  • I'm not a doctor, but I can try to provide some general information that may help you. The sensation you're experiencing in your lower back could have various potential causes, and it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

    Based on your description, it's possible that the previous incident where you bumped your knees together may have caused some strain or injury to your lower back. Over time, if the issue was not addressed or properly healed, it could lead to ongoing discomfort or sensations when you engage certain muscles or movements.
