Dear patient
your symptoms indicate diagnosis of nerve compression at the level of lumbar spine with radicular pain in the right lower limb. Reason may be disc prolapse. Diagnosis can be confirmed by doing MRI of the lumbo sacral spine with screening of whole spine. Please get it done from radiology centre nearby you. Gabapentin is drug effective in radicular pain. if you are getting hyperacidity please take tab pantocid 40 mg twice a day before meals along with gabapentin. You need to consult spine surgeon with report.
