It sounds like sciatica. If it gets worse you may need to go to a chiro and have your back adjusted. if you have any numbness or tingling or your legs fall asleep and you have trouble waking them up go immediately and have a mri or ct scan done. You could have a more serious issue such as a nerve compression. Best wishes, Sissie
