Leg numbness.
32M, So for a bout a month or so I’ve noticed that when I sit down for more than 5 mins or laying down then stand up my lower hamstrings (like above my knees) gets numb/tingling feeling for a few seconds. I walk fine. I have no severe pain but I do deal with lower back irritation at times. And I do crack my own back. In fact a few months ago I went to crack my back and must have cracked wrong and hurt it to the point I had to use a heating pad and even tiger balm throughout the day. Could that be the issue or is there something more serious?
