Brief Answer:
Get investigated.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have read your query.

Symptoms you are explaining mostly due to compression of nerve in lumbosacral region which supply lower limb.

So I advise you to have xray of lumbosacral region in AP and Lateral view and send me the report.

Till then have tab.aceclofenac100mg +thiocolchicoside4mg twice a day by prescription of your family doctor as this medicine is not over the counter.

Avoid weightlifting, squatting.

Apply hot packs.

I hope you got the answer.

Thanks,

Dr.CHANDER XXXXXXX XXXXXXX
