ASK YOUR SPINE DOCTOR

I'm a 35-year-old man with lower back pain for the past one week, making it hard to sit, stand, or walk without a Dr. Ortho belt. I also feel tingling in one leg. Could this be a nerve issue?

Yes, these might be symptoms of muscle spasms or disc-related issues as you have movement difficulty. You should consult a specialist.

2 I'm 29 years old. I have been detected with a right curved C-shaped scoliosis. The convex side is on my right side, my left shoulder is a little lowered. I don't know how this has happened. What should be done to recover?
