I have tingling in my back for about one month. What does it mean? It really hurts, and sometimes I can't walk on my left leg, when I feel that tingling and pain.

Probably a compressed(pinched)nerve.
There are many nerves that originate in the low back. Some of these nerves stay in the low back, while others travel to other parts of the body, such as the buttock or legs. Therefore, symptoms of low back problems can be felt in many places in the body.
Usually lower back pain that travels down the thigh is due to a pinched nerve(a pinched nerve occurs when there is "compression" (pressure) on a nerve). Nerves can be pinched by either a bulging or herniated disc, an arthritic facet joint, or an overgrowth of bony material, such as a bone spur. Pain may or may not be accompanied by numbness or tingling in the thigh.
