Long story short I've been dealing with pain and numbness in my left leg and left extreme lower back while exercising for about three months. I've seen two PT's and gotten many exercises for several areas where I am having problems.
While running, hip pain, leg pain down side of leg, lower leg and calf pain, foot begins hurting.
While cycling, all of the above including glute. Then about 30 minutes in on any ride my foot falls asleep. I haven't ridden long enough to see if the rest of my leg falls asleep because by the time my foots asleep I can barely use my left leg to pedal.
My left leg seems fine when Im not exercising, but as soon as I use it to exercise its all down hill.
The only exercise that seems to help a little is prone press ups.
Ive been foam rolling my it band a lot, doing some trigger points and massage all over my leg, the problem isn't in my leg.
Another thing to note, I am a student and I notice when I put my back pack on and start walking there some weird lower back and glute pinching feeling and it makes me start limping on my left side.
Final note, about three months ago when this all started I also was in the middle of moving houses, lifting heavy things like couches... etc.
Anyone have any similar situations?
Any more exercises other than prone press ups?
