Hi, thank you for the brief history of you. As mentioned by you, your posture adapted in the office, it looks more or the tightness of the muscle due to which the nerve is getting trapped. Also, there is a possibility that you may have lumbar spine disc degenerative changes. As taking into consideration the comment by the leprosy without performing a special laboratory test it is difficult to comment on the same as you have leprosyAlso, the test like skin biopsy, CV, EMG are the few tests to mention to figure out if it is really leprosy. What came to my understanding is that due to prolonged sitting in the office chair and working for hours you may have degenerative changes in the spine. For which an MRI will help for guidance. Also, such conditions can be controlled by medication and physical therapy. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
