Hello Sudheer!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

Your symptoms could be related to sciatica, which is an inflammation or irritation of the sciatic nerve, probably as a result of a discal hernia in the lumbar spine region.

For this reason, I would recommend taking painkillers (acetaminophen, ibuprofen, ketoprofen,etc.) and have some bed rest.

I would also advice performing a lumbar spine CT scan to exclude possible hernia, which may need surgery.
A lumbar brace may help. It is also important avoiding lifting heavy weights.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
