Hi,
You have sciatic nerve pressure symptom. It could be pyriformis muscle symptom or some boney part (arthritis) or swelling of the bursa and joint pressing.
MRI would clear the diagnosis followed by specific management (medicines, local steroids, physiotherapy or surgery in few cases.) Please consult an orthopedic surgeon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale,
