I was talking to my mom who has some back problems and I was explaining to her what I've been feeling these past few days. About a week ago I woke up from a nap with some discomfort in my lower back. The pain increased and lasted for about 2 days total. Now, the lower back is feeling fine, but I have a numb feeling in my right buttocks and when I walk it sends a numbing, shooting pain into my foot. Does anyone know what this is? I'm only 22, and I just didn't think I would be having such a problem at such an age, but it's very uncomfortable to walk! Please help
