Thanks to sports and skateboarding when I was in high school I thought I had some sort of leg injury. It turned out to be my lower back which I eventually had to have surgery on. It wasn't a major surgery, it was just to go in there and remove a bone fragment that was sitting on a nerve. It was somehow pushed onto the nerve thanks to a bulging disc. How the hell a bone fragment was just floating around in my back I have no clue. I've been pretty banged up in my youth, but broken bone? I had no idea!

The long point is, those spine problems can send pain into other parts of your body. It's strange but I, sort of, feel your pain.
