The symptoms may be different from patient to patient. Many of the patients feel pain on the right and left lower spine while others feel pain in the buttocks and also in the biceps femoris area. The levels of pain which we measure on a special pain scale vary for each individual, individually. The pain may be sharp, diffuse or deep and indeterminate in the lumbar region. It can be caused by a sudden movement such as a sudden weight lifting or even after a sporting activity. The pain may be constant but may also increase or decrease depending on the activity. Patients complain that they cannot sit in a prolonged sitting position and also cannot stand for long periods of time. Walking is painful and inconvenient for the patient.
