You're not talking about sciatica, are you? Pinched nerve in spine causing pain shooting down one leg. Often caused by sitting long periods in a poorly designed chair or car seat. Lumbar and/or thigh support helps.

I know if I press my left thumb at the upper portion of my pelvis in just the right spot, I can kill most of the pain when walking. So nerve stuff helps and TENS does work on nerves.
