Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. It is clear from doctor's examination that there must be issue in l4/5 and l5/s1 region of spine. The good thing is that motor power of all muscles is good as written in your question. If you can upload mri images and report I can see the amount of compression and then can guide you regarding treatment. Also always check there should not be increasing numbness, paresthesias, bladder and bowel disturbance because in that case we have to operate the patient. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
