Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms seem to be related to sciatica pain.
It is caused by an inflammation or irritation of the sciatic nerve.
I suggest you to use anti-inflammatory medication to relieve the pain such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.
I also recommend to use anti-inflammatory cream for local application in the area of pain such as Voltaren gel.
If you don't feel relief you can also use muscle relaxants such as Baclofen three times a day.
I suggest you to do regular back stretching exercises.
I also would recommend to use heating pads for local relief.
If the symptoms continue you should consult a neurologist for further evaluation.
