lumbar spine pain

Hey,

i have a patient aged 31, he is an administrative assistance, and he had a sudden onsent of dull ache in the left lower lumbar region 3 days ago, he was moving house, following morning he felt very stiff and started experincing pain in the posterior aspect of the left thigh, his symptoms are aggravated by sitting 15mins and eased by walking. he is currently taking ibuprofen for pain relief, his straight leg raise is positive. what do you think is occuring with this patient and what do you suggest i do with him

i am wondering how u can take resposibility of treating a patient without having graduated the physio school...I saw your age (19) and i was scepticist about it

I am a student physio, on placement.
