Hello,
I have studied your case and most probably you are having disc herniation with nerve compression in the spine. I would recommend you to get some rest. Take hot water fomentation in the back and also kep your leg elevated over pillow. You should also take tablet Pregabalin M one daily.This will decrease nerve edema and also take care of the pain.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
