Hello,
I have studied your case. Most proably this is nerve compression pain due to disc herniation in spine. For this you need to get MRI to confirm the diagnosis. You need to start following treatment.
1.Tablet Pregabalin M one daily.
2.Tablet myospaz daily.
3.Hot water fomentation.
4. Avoid sqautting and forward bending.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
