Is it illegal to beat up someone under the age of 18 if your like 40 if they throw the first punch?
You have the right to defend yourself, but the defence has to be proportional to the threat. If a small unarmed guy takes a swing at you and you beat him to a pulp, then you can get punished for that.

You need a medical professional. Most often, when you have back pain, something in your back (such as a disc herniation) is causing both the back pain and the pain in pelvis, hip, thigh, leg, foot, etc.
So the simplest explanation is a musculoskeletal problem in the low back. That is the first thing a medical professional will look for. If the symptoms are odd then you can consider stuff like spinal tumours, which are rare and impossible to diagnose without some kind of image like an MRI.
Don't attempt to "test" the pain or do activities like sex that make it worse until you see a professional.
Do whatever makes you feel better - certain movements like backward bending may help, and certain positions like lying on your back with legs elevated or lying on your stomach may also help. Don't do too much, only do what makes you feel better.
I can't stress this enough. See a professional, like a physician.
Neuropathy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuropathy Y-THINK-Y Subluxation could be the cause. It is very important that you visit a Chiropractor to assess the problem. You can get x-rays and a detailed physical of your nervous system, spine, and overall health. A subluxation is when your spine is misaligned which causes either pinched nerves, damaged nerves, damaged discs, etc. Your nerves are like the life line to your organs. If it is pinched or not allowed to function 100%, then it is like pinching a water hose. Everyone can benefit from Chiropractic, especially you at this time. The sign of a good doctor is to listen to his patient! Keep moving and get another opinion. It's possible all it is would be a pinched nerve in your back, but one never knows. It could be many thing. Any doctor that poo-poos a problem such as yours isn't earning his/her money!

That would be a periapical abscess. The tooth it is associated with is dead, you should have a root canal or extraction a.s.a.p. Waiting too long will allow the recurrent infection to break down the bone supporting the tooth and the long term prognosis of a root canal will be diminished. Having a long standing recurrent infection can also cause numerous other systemic problems and risk blood sepsis if the infection is released into the blood stream. Go to your Dentist, get an X-ray.

What does diffusely mean in the term her legs ache diffusely?

What is vitamin d good for you?
Vitamin D? We used to think that Vitamin D was only good for your bone health. But that is not true any more. About 25 years ago some researchers found that people in the northern climate - like Canada and Northern Europe - had larger incidents of cancer. That raised a lot of eyebrows. Since then they have found out that Vitamin D - particular in its (liquid) calciterol form- is produced by our exposure to the sun. It has also become clear now that the lack of Vitamin D is the cause of many cancers, but especially of breast and prostrate cancer. Much research in the last 15 years has broadened the list of cancers caused by the lack of sunshine. Visit http://www.vitamindcouncil.com/news.shtml for more info.
