Hello,
Thanks for your query.
His symptoms can be either due to a nerve compression at spine or due to narrowing of blood vessels at leg. Bloating of abdomen could be due to indigestion.
If this pain persist I would suggest him take Pregabalin and Methylcobal tablet at night time after consulting the doctor
If this pain continue even after taking these medicines then it will require investigations such as MRI and Doppler for blood vessels in leg.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
