siatica

(5 discussions)

I am being treated for low back pain and after about 6 weeks of manipulations I began getting cramps in my calf and thighs and sometimes to my foot. They are usually on the front, but sometimes in the back and sides of the thigh and calf. Do you think that this is normal in patients being treated for low back injuries which started with only spasms (mild trobing across the lower back). Thanks for your helpful information.
