question: I am experiencing lower back pain on my right side. Not bad while sitting or laying down but very painful when I walk. Extreme pain in lower back and right thigh. Don t know if it s a sore muscle or pinched nerve. Taking Ibuprofen 600mg and Diazepam 10 mg tablets every eight hours. Pain still persisting after three or four days. Didn t slip and fall or engage in any heavy lifting recently. This is a first for me. I m age 60 and in good health otherwise. Hope you can offer some insight. Dave F.
