Some nerve directed medicines can help

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

This can be a difficult problem. However, there are good medicines which can treat pain of nerve origin like sciatica. Some of them are gabapentin, pregabalin, duloxetine, etc. These are all prescription medications and hence you will need to consult your doctor for these.
Physiotherapy can also be very helpful.
I am sure these will be able to control the pain.

Hope this helps.
Regards
