Hi,
You may have a prolapsed lumber disc which is causing your back pain and sciatica which is the pain in your leg. This will not have been caused by the epidural. It is just a coincidence that you had an epidural and you now have back pain. The lumps on the legs are not related to your backache.
I suggest you take simple pain killers for the backache such as paracetamol or codeine.
