Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this pain you are having.

From the description of these symptoms, it could be caused by sciatica, ovarian cyst, pelvic infection, etc. In order to establish the ultimate cause of this pain, it would be good to get examined by your primary care doctor and may be do a few tests to establish the exact cause as there are many possible origins.

I hope you find this helpful and informative. If you have more questions, please feel free to forward them to me and we shall gladly address them.
I wish you good health.
