question: hi, I have really bad lower back pain.  it is difficult to move when I lie down for any length of time. and when I try to get up.  it hurts when I walk and is normally on the left side above my left buttock.  I am 49 and overweight for my height I am also fairly buxom.  I am otherwise healthy and walk my dog regularly for at least an hour and a half a day, the back pain is getting worse.
