Brief Answer:
a MRI may be required
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.
This may be due to lumbar disc problems. Disc is the soft tissue between two vertebral bones. If it gets pushed posteriorly or gets inflamed then this kind of symptoms can happen.
A MRI of lower spine can help detect this or any other spinal problem. Appropriate remedy can then be provided. Till then you can take muscle relaxants to give relief.
Hope this helps.
